FormscanBy Mark Nunan - The presence of a Willie Mullins newcomer obviously tempers confidence, but BARNET BROOK might be able to put his experience to good use in the hands of Derek O’Connor. The Dubai Destination gelding was slightly disappointing on debut when a beaten favourite at Downpatrick (when ridden by Patrick Mullins), but he ran well in second behind Drury (another Mullins inmate) at Cork earlier this month, with subsequent ten length Ballinrobe scorer Druim Samhraidh five and a half lengths behind him in third. Patrick Mullins will have that bit of knowledge about the selection as he takes the mount on Blue Jacaranda for his father. The daughter of Presenting is a half-sister to a three-time minor hurdle winner in Britain, and the dam won two over flights when trained across the water by Carl Llewellyn. The champion trainer has won a couple of bumpers within the last week or so with mares, so all in all the stable will have a good idea of what’s required here. Toms Courage and Byrnersround were placed here a fortnight ago, but the leaders may have gone too quick on that occasion and the form might be dubious, while Shanwalla looks held by the selection on a line through Druim Samhraidh. Andy Oliver has the odd bumper winner, and his newcomer Presenting Meghan is a half-sister to Conor O’Dwyer’s useful four-time winner Competitive Edge.
