FormscanBy Gary Carson - O'FAOLAINS GLORY ran well in a competitive contest at Navan last time and a similar effort may be enough to get her on the scoresheet again. The Fame And Glory mare showed marked improvement on previous efforts when third to Love Me and off just a 2lb higher mark she looks to be on a rating that she can win off. She scored off this mark over fences at Downpatrick in May. Backfromtheraces ran well on her handicap debut when chasing home Inchiquin Star at Wexford in late October and could be a danger. Bishbashbosh is unexposed and could be one to note on her first outing for Ross O'Sullivan.
