FormscanBy Gary Carson - The step up in trip here might suit MUILEATA who has been running well in maidens without managing to make the breakthrough. She ran another decent race when chasing home Sea Coast at Naas last time and was keeping on without pegging back the winner. She looks on a fair mark and deserves to get her head in front. Byron Beauty is another who has run up a sequence of placed efforts. She ran on well from the back at Ballinrobe on Monday and the bigger track here may suit more with her hold up tactics. Mr Snagsby has been placed on his last two starts over course and distance and remains on the same mark. He could reach the prize money again. Notable Graduate has been dropped 9lb since disappointing here last September but this trip looks on the sharp side and he may be having a blow-out here ahead of Galway next week. Cottesloe hasn't run since Dundalk in March. Most of his efforts have been over further but he was narrowly denied over course and distance last summer.
