Formscan By Michael Graham - SIONNACH EILE sets the standard after two very solid placed efforts. He was 40/1 on debut at Tipperary in September but showed plenty of ability in third, with several subsequent winners behind him. He was beaten the same distance (two and a half lengths) into second when reappearing at Gowran Park last month. He can leave here with form figures of 321. Boola Boola came from a long way back for fifth in that Gowran Park race and has prospects of getting closer. He faced a very tough task when finishing a remote second to a 1/4 favourite in Dundalk on his next start. Ballinlough Gale was third in that aforementioned race at Gowran Park but didn't build upon that when fifth at Limerick. He has been placed in five of his eight outings, so has prospects of another cheque. Shedini could show more here.
