Formscan By Donal Murphy - In first time cheekpieces MELBOURNE SHAMROCK appeals off an initial mark of 121. Sold for 125,000 pounds after winning a point-to-point, the Hillstar seven-year-old has been running well of late, going down by just a head on his penultimate start. Carrying the Grand National and Gold Cup winning silks of Robert Waley-Cohen, the lightly raced bay notably holds a Pertemps Final entry and could take up that engagement on the back of a positive showing here. First and third at Punchestown on Wednesday, Well Del and Ontheropes are set for a quick turnaround, with the former sure to be well-fancied in his bid to follow-up. D Art D Art and Minella Sixo are others for the shortlist.
