FormscanBy Michael Graham - ELIZABETH J can improve upon a solid runner-up finish in Galway this month. That was her seasonal debut after being off since February and she kept finding, over a similar trip to this one, to get up for second in the closing stages. The horse in third has since won a maiden hurdle in Ballybrit to enhance the form. Morning Beatrice looks dangerous after a third place in Wexford. It wouldn't be a surprise to see Joseph O'Brien's charge get much closer. Henry de Bromhead introduces Boher Cailin to the track after she won a point-to-point in March for Ian Power. She has to be given a market check. He also takes the wraps off Leac An Scail Lady who is related to a couple of winners. Moonlight Symphony showed much more when fourth at this track on her last start. That was on better ground, though. First reserve Beth Horan would have a role to play if getting a run.
