FormscanBy Alan Magee - ARE YOU AROUND has indicated some ability in two bumper starts and may have found a good opportunity on her hurdle debut. The Willie Mullins-trained filly was placed behind Fraher Field on debut at Wexford in August and David Doyle is a good booking in a race for amateur riders that have not lost the right to claim 7lb. Luck Between Us made a pleasing start over hurdles at Roscommon in July and was only headed on the run-in when runner-up to Lord Ffrench over a similar trip here the following month. Insouciant Dallier has been lightly raced and generally disappointing since second to Will Do in a maiden hurdle here two years ago.
