Formscan By Tom Weekes - BELLAPHINA hasn’t run for 49 days but returns to a course where she won her maiden in 2023. Ground-versatile, she was absent for 304 days prior to returning last July and, at Gowran in April, showed nice form having met trouble in-running, to finish a never-nearer third. She steps back up to a mile but has winning distance-form. Another previous course winner Anvika failed to win at Dundalk last winter but ran well on her recent reappearance. That was a big-field Curragh handicap and, while raised 3lb, did score when rated 75 here in 2024. Recent hurdles-winner Expound is an able Flat performer but would prefer a furlong-further and needs a sound surface.
