Formscan By Gary Carson - MONGIBELLO ran a big race when chasing home Only By Night in a Listed bumper at Navan last month and a similar showing would make her hard to beat in this. The Authorized mare had been placed in a point-to-point back in February and it was a reflection of how connections rated her that she competed at that level first time on the track. Quint Major chased home a classy sort in Firefox on his debut here last month and could be the danger. The market may prove the best guide to the chances of Gordon Elliott's newcomer Lazy Bones. The Champs Elysees mare is a home-bred by owners Bective Stud.
