Formscan By Alan Magee - FIRST WAVE was only headed close home when beaten a neck by better fancied stablemate Expanded on debut at the Curragh and has probably shown a similar level of form when a beaten favourite on all three outings since including when second to Dupont Law on the opening day of the turf season over this trip at the Curragh. Daler didn’t enjoy the clearest of passages when third to County Mayo over course and distance last autumn and the form of that race has worked out quite well since. Ben Lawers, Pierre Royal and Rizal are three newcomers to keep a close eye on and any market support would be significant.
