Formscan By Donal Murphy - Akeela and Katie Ross start off for Ian Donoghue and Gavin Cromwell respectively and both are of definite interest. Bought out of a claimer at Gowran last month, the former is tried in a first time hood and tonguestrap, with Dylan Browne McMonagle a significant jockey booking. For a selection, ZARAAHMANDO gets the nod. A never nearer fifth of 20 when last seen at Naas in April, he looks capable of making his presence felt off a revised mark of 53. Top-weight Cherry Pink finished behind the selection in that Naas contest, but has been in great form since and went down by just half-a-length at Gowran last week. Chou Chou warrants respect with Colin Keane aboard, while Roscommon runner-up Blue Wood is another leading hope.
