FormscanBy John O'Riordan - Making her debut for trainer Conor Maxwell, AREANA can gain a first career success. A strong traveller, who was placed twice for Denis Hogan, the daughter of Pride Of Dubai ran her best race here last season over this trip. On the assumption that she is fit enough on this first start since February, the five-year-old gets the vote. Placed on his last two runs at this track, Epaulawn holds claims for trainer Noel Hynds. The six-year-old moved well through his race last week before finding less than expected. A consistent gelding, he should be able to win in this grade at some point in the coming weeks. Waystar drops back in trip now having stayed on strongly at Navan last time. If she can lie up in the initial stages, the John McConnell-trained filly should be involved.
