FormscanBy Tom Weekes - PANA TO MILAN dead-heated to win at 50/1 at Fairyhouse and remains somewhat unexposed. Her prior form was poor and she drops back in distance but is open to further improvement being a five year old. Stablemate Crowsatedappletart was beaten 30 lengths into second over course and distance last month (beating Shean Glory) and had previously shown reasonable ability at Limerick during Christmas, with that form working out well. Four-year-old point-to-point winner Little Token's form is quite in-and-out but ran well recently and won over course and distance last March (beating Shean Glory). Pharisees was beaten 27 lengths during Christmas but has shaped well on occasions and contested a useful course handicap in October. Caoimhes Pet disappointed at Limerick but had previously shown ability at this level.
