Formscan - PRINCE NINO is a three-time winner at this venue, all over 2m4f, and he's well worth another chance over this 3m trip judged on the manner in which he finished off his race when scoring here in May. That was a great training performance from Lizzie Quinlan to get him back in that form following a year off the track, and he could quite easily strike again. Loro White heads the list of dangers from The Best Way.

Quotes on Creadan Grace (IRE)
I'd say three miles definitely suited, very tough and stayed galloping. It is great. James is a good rider and is strong there off 10-10, so I'm delighted for him. He is riding out more in the winter there, so we will try and give him a chance if we can.
