FormscanBy Mark Nunan - FORGETMENOTBLUE had a couple of good placed efforts on soft ground earlier in the year including when second over slightly farther than this distance at Roscommon in May. After nearly three months off, she may have needed the run at Down Royal last month when shaping well in fifth behind two subsequent winners and Dermot Weld’s daughter of Pivotal can go well back in her own age group with that outing under her belt. Topweight Apologise has a fair burden to defy but came home well when fourth in a maiden here on soft ground and stepping back up in trip from 1m should suit the son of Fascinating Rock. Fellow handicap debutant Zebos Beanos left her moderate maiden form well behind when a big-priced third in her first handicap at Bellewstown and has definite claims if building on that. Chutzpal is held by the selection on Down Royal form but wasn’t beaten far at Navan last week and is still unexposed.
