FormscanBy Donal Murphy - A runner-up over the course and distance in the Noblesse, SUMIHA might be able to reverse the form with Thunder Roll. Just half-a-length separated the pair in that Listed contest, with the selection finishing fast after meeting with some trouble in running. The Dermot Weld-trained four-year-old again filled the runner-up spot on her most recent outing at the Curragh and would be a deserving winner of this Group 3 prize. Third, seventh and eleventh in the Noblesse, Trevaunance, Joupe and Derida all return to the Mallow venue, with the latter, who won a Listed race in France, fitted with a tongue strap for the first time. Getting a weight allowance on account of her age, Greenfinch is another leading hope. A fine fourth in Group 3 company at Leopardstown when last seen, she finished ahead of three subsequent winners and taking a significant step-up in trip now, it'll be interesting to see how she fares.
