Formscan - MERMAIDS CAVE has gone from strength to strength since joining the James Owen stable and a 7lb rise for her most recent success at Fontwell could prove lenient. The five-year-old is likely to be suited by the idiosyncracies of this track, and it may be Carrigeen Kampala that gives her the most to think about on her first run since scoring easily at Newton Abbot last September. Now that the penny has dropped for Tour Ovalie, she should have more improvement forthcoming.
