FormscanBy Tom Weekes - GOODIE TWO SHOES concedes weight but remains unexposed. Very slowly away when winning impressively on debut, she beat a stakes-placed horse at Punchestown in September and while keen-going, could be more settled reappearing following two winter hurdle runs. Two furlongs has been chopped from this year's renewal but this distance suits. Stablemate Dancing Tango is 7lb higher than when winning at Fairyhouse and while more exposed than the selection, should run well. Jungle Cove is a distance winner but was well held in a recent Epsom handicap while Longbourn has been running well but hasn't won since his course and distance success in June 2021. In From The Cold won a Sligo handicap in May while Coill Na Sionainne and Believe In Science both ran well in recent Leopardstown handicaps. Lord Vader caught the eye when finishing well in April and while he lacks a run, remains a dark horse who can improve. Lightly-weighted Pachmena and Yokkell have recent form.
