Formscan By Gary Carson - WARDENS WHISPER may be able to turn the tables on Liberated Light. The Philip Rothwell-trained gelding went down by half-a-length to that rival at Limerick over Christmas and is now 4lb better off. He got caught in a pocket a bit then turning for home and didn’t help his rider by hanging right. Once he straightened up late on he finished off well and looks capable of striking off this mark. Liberated Light is entitled to be a big player again despite his 6lb rise. Walk Of The Roses is capable of better than she showed on her Irish debut at Thurles and could get closer now.

Quotes on Miss Maxfort (IRE)
She was just very green and jumping up into the air a small bit at Clonmel. She was still green enough today and when we got competitive turning out of the back, she really latched on. I was getting there a bit sooner than I wanted, but she was kind of taking me there and I had no real choice in the matter. In fairness, when she hit the front she galloped right to the line and wasn't that green.
