FormscanBy Mark Nunan - WITH THANKS is an improving type with a good record on testing ground and may make the journey from Newmarket worthwhile by landing this Group 3. She was touched off in a Listed event at Goodwood by the useful Onassis who ran well in a Group 1 next time. The selection is going an extra furlong on this occasion but has good prospects of staying the trip given how she’s been seeing out her races over 7f. Silk Forest bolted up in a Listed race at this track at this time last year and might be able to bounce back to form on ground she handles well. Her stablemate Best On Stage is another to consider having followed up a handicap win at Listowel with a good second at Listed level at this venue last time. So Wonderful won a Listed race at Killarney in August before running respectably in the Matron Stakes at Leopardstown. She can’t be ruled out although she’s had plenty of racing this season.
