FormscanBy Donal Murphy - Successful in this very race 12-months ago, TANGO FLARE can repeat the feat. Down the field on his return to action in the Mallow Handicap, he put in a much-improved performance to finish fourth of 17 in a competitive affair on Guineas weekend at the Curragh. In calmer waters now, the 98-rated bay looks the one to beat. The likeable Warrior Brave won three times last season and is an obvious danger. However, he hasn't been seen since September and is sure to come on for the run. Dandyville is a dual course and distance winner and warrants the utmost respect, while Sligo victor Her Ladyship and the Ger Lyons-trained Ragga Bomb are other that could get involved.
