FormscanBy Mark Nunan - Wayne Lordan's decision to partner GASPER DE LEMOS looks significant and the Justify colt gets the nod. The Curragh maiden winner was no match for former Derby fancy Arabian Crown in the Zetland Stakes over 1m2f in October but that is still fair form in the context of this race. Disappointing back at Newmarket on his reappearance, the selection will be better for that outing and is obviously expected to relish a test of stamina. Lordan rode The Equator to victory in a Leopardstown maiden and the form of that race has been boosted so it may not have been the easiest of decisions. Birdman won a 1m4f maiden at Cork and that form has also been franked in recent days.%0A%0A
