Good (good to yielding in places on Round) View all races

Formscan By Alan Magee - SUBSTANCE impressed on handicap debut at Roscommon and may defy a 10lb hike in the ratings. The son of Supremacy hails from a yard in great form and appreciated the sounder surface when quickening clear in the closing stages. The selection is one of six in the line-up to win last time out, while Golden Trigger and Seoul Force both merit respect after landing maidens over this trip at Dundalk last year. Star Of Sapphire has been absent since winning a Navan maiden last summer, while Johnny Murtagh has declared three runners and Zenford is an interesting contender on handicap debut with Rory Mulligan claiming 5lb.
