FormscanBy John O'Riordan - SHONA MEA has every chance of following up her recent Gowran Park win for Jessica Harrington and Scott McCullagh. The six-year-old only got up close home to claim her fourth career success but had more in hand than a neck margin suggests. Having run well off higher marks in the past, it would be a surprise if she wasn't very competitive. Blue Peak also comes into this race on the back of a win, having scored at Roscommon last month. The Michael Grassick trained filly remains open to further improvement having only had the six starts thus far. Coolree has been off the track since finishing third at Dundalk in January. However, the Jennifer Lynch trained gelding drops into the bottom grade for the first time, so has to be of obvious interest for his shrewd stable.
