FormscanBy Alan Magee - FLORIDA STRAIT makes plenty of appeal on pedigree being a brother to Irish Cesarewitch winner Magellan Strait and the dam has produced plenty of winners including another useful stayer Lagostovegas who won at Royal Ascot. Patrick Mullins is an interesting booking on Kalium who cost 62,000 euro last summer and is a half-brother to a couple of winners in France while Gather Yourself, Light On His Feet and Derryville are other newcomers to note. Those with form make limited appeal although the heavy going was put forward as an excuse for Spinola Bay who was bitterly disappointing at the Fairyhouse Easter meeting.
