FormscanBy Eamonn Murphy - Though he’s still a maiden I wouldn’t be surprised to see Foxy Jacks go well here. Mouse Morris recently said: “The bubble often bursts but there are one or two promising horses there. They’ll be stepping up to the mark now. There’s a few of them virtually ready to run from November onwards. The season doesn’t really get going until then.” For a selection I’ll go with another one in search of an initial success over jumps, POSEIDON. He was second to the subsequent For Auction victor, Abacadabras, at Gowran in October. Since then Poseidon ran a bit better than the bare facts would imply, on the level at Naas. Obviously you’d like to see the Charles Byrnes hope strong in the betting before making an investment. Wooster and Rock Samphire are outsiders, but the others have chances.
