Formscan By Michael Graham - Plenty of rain is expected before racing in Galway. With that in mind, MUSIC DRIVE is taken to make a winning start over hurdles. He won his bumper on soft, yielding in places ground at Naas in February which earned him a shot at the Grade 1 Champion Bumper at the Cheltenham Festival in which he came home eighth. The horse a place behind him in ninth landed a maiden hurdle in Worcester last month. Ahead Of The Posse has been placed in two of his three bumpers including when pipped by a head in Ballinrobe. This ground is likely to be much slower than he has encountered, but he looks a likely contender. Maidenstreetprince has improved on each of his three starts in bumpers and Philip Byrnes claims a useful 7lb on him.
