FormscanBy John O'Riordan - Having caught the eye on a couple of occasions of late, BLANC DE NOIR can record a second career success. A consistent gelding since joining trainer Johnny Murtagh, the four-year-old has been plying his trade in a slightly higher grade of late. With Ben Coen returning to the saddle, the son of Showcasing holds leading claims. Recent Tipperary scorer Linger For Longer has been an infrequent visitor to the winners' enclosure but as a mare in form, she commands respect. Local trainer Austin Leahy is sure to have her primed for this contest. Imperial Dream has run well enough on three starts since joining Pat Flynn to suggest that he will get his turn in the coming weeks.
