FormscanBy Mark Nunan - DANCING STEVE was placed over 1m2f earlier in the summer and was nearest at the finish when making the frame over this trip at Cork last time. The Highland Reel gelding has prospects of making the breakthrough if finding a little improvement on that last run and is back against his own age-group here. Formerly with Andrew Balding, Simple Endeavour was runner-up on her second start for Jessica Harrington at Naas in early July. The Dubawi filly made the running then and now drops back a furlong. Bizarre Dreams made a promising handicap debut when fourth at Gowran in June but hasn't yet built on that, while Sobriety Blue ran well on soft ground when fifth at the Galway festival. %0A%0A%0A
