FormscanBy Alan Magee - ELLAAT was the subject of a major gamble when reverting to the Flat at Limerick last month, backed down at all rates from 50/1 and eventually going off the 5/2 favourite. The plunge looked set to be landed until caught close home by Rodney Bay, and the form of that extended 1m3f event has been boosted with Park Row (fourth) and Punters Poet (eighth) both winning since. His only previous win came at this trip, and Noel Kelly’s charge remains on a lowly mark. Waterville Lady ran well here last autumn and has dropped down to an attractive mark, while top-weight Malbas reverts to the turf after a number of promising runs at Dundalk earlier this year. Slieve Bearnagh, Matilda With Me and Tyriana are others to consider.
