Going - Good, Good to Firm in places. Showery

Formscan By Eamonn Murphy - A mare-in-form like MISS GITANA is difficult to ignore. Granted, her win at Tramore last week was achieved on the level, but the Nathaniel youngster has already displayed a reasonable level of ability as a hurdler. The former Sir Mark Prescott inmate has got placed course form too, after a third behind subsequent winners Queenofthelodge and Billie Frechette in May. That reads really well in the context of this event, and though she'll need to brush her jumping up, an always to the fore approach from Kevin Sexton could take the selection all the way to the gold medal position. Gerald Quinn is two-handed. After her Perth second placing Tamlaght Eyes looks interesting, ahead of Ar Nos Na Gaoithe, another runner-up from last time.
