FormscanBy Eamonn Murphy - Wexford form behind the impressive Ashroe Diamond from over a month back, will be put to the test by Whispering Pines in the preceding heat. Whispering Pines, third then, was the selection for the 4.40, and Bettyville silver medallist, BANNTOWN GIRL, gets the nod for this finale. Banntown Girl has her second start for Sonny Carey now, and it’ll be no surprise at all if she relishes the forecast sounder surface. The only previous winner, The Gossiper, is better than he looked last time, after being impeded entering the straight. Others to keep in mind are Miracle Millions, Rightful Mind, Esperti, Cafe Del Mar and Lily Du Berlais.
