FormscanBy Mark Nunan - CURRAHEEN PRINCESS goes from strength to strength as a sprinter and can land her biggest success to date. The Prince Of Lir filly hasn’t been out of the first two in her last six starts and is only 3lb higher after winning at Navan three weeks ago. She has plenty of form on easy ground. Gordon Bennett has been another big improver and followed up two wins with a fine fifth in the Bold Lad Handicap on Irish Champions Weekend. He’s very effective over 6f so this drop to the minimum distance could be an issue. Thunder Eclipse met trouble in running when finishing just behind Gordon Bennett last time. He’ll like the ground but will need them to go hard in front because he'd probably prefer an extra furlong as well. Urban Beat has been badly out of form this term but has dropped to an attractive mark as a consequence and will handle the ground
