FormscanBy Mark Nunan - Not a particularly competitive race for the grade and JUNCTURE may be good enough. A Listed winner on the all-weather in the spring, she was runner-up in a handicap here in May behind a filly that almost won a Group 3 next time. After a break, Ger Lyons’ charge chased home a smart colt in the Desmond Stakes at Leopardstown and was four lengths clear of the third who struck at Listed level next time out. Seisai is the one to beat on ratings and has been a consistent performer at stakes level since winning a Listed contest at Tipperary last term. Her mark was raised 6lb after finishing runner-up in a course and distance Group 2 last month and the fourth won at this level next time. Magic Chegaga had her big day when landing a premier handicap at Galway and connections are in bonus territory with her now. Dual nursery winner Viareggio has run creditably in Listed events at Goodwood and Killarney but will need to raise her game.%0A
