FormscanBy John O'Riordan - Narrowly denied on her second chasing start at Tipperary recently, BETTY DUTTON can go one better. A 100-rated mare over hurdles, the Edward O'Grady-trained seven-year-old has a class edge over a number of these rivals. With Darragh O'Keeffe a notable booking, she has bright prospects of registering a first career win over fences. Point-to-point winner Je Suis shaped encouragingly when mid-division on her chasing debut at Tipperary earlier this month. Entitled to improve from that, the Sam Curling-trained mare enters calculations. Karloss should be sharper having run well on his return from a long absence when fourth over hurdles at Clonmel in May.
