FormscanBy Michael Graham - A good race. HALE BOPP stayed on well to post a victory over course and distance in October, and has the opportunity to follow up. The horse that was beaten half a length into second came out and easily shed his maiden tag by four lengths on his next start to really boost the form. Let Me Pass was a comfortable winner of his maiden at this venue under Mikey Sheehy and the 5lb claimer is reunited with him. He has an official rating of 92 and will be a tough nut to crack. Messidor is another course and distance winner who really found her stride on the Polytrack. She is open to plenty of improvement. Newcomers First Blood, Stellar Spirit and Mr Mocha are worth a market check in addition to French recruit Allez Barza who won on turf in his homeland in July.
