FormscanBy Eamonn Murphy - Dual representation from both the Caroline McCaldin and Pat Turley yards. Mrs McCaldin could provide the answer with the Noel McParlan-ridden BALLYEARL, after a decent effort from the Yeats gelding at Cork last time. With a tongue-strap and cheek-pieces on then - those aids are retained now - Ballyearl was doing his best work at the finish when a fourteen lengths fifth behind a useful winner in Wrong Direction. Ballyearl was in arrears of Outside The Ring in a Portrush older horses maiden point-to-point back in October. That rival is greatly feared, with his last piece of form, a second placing to subsequent dual Punchestown hero, Singing Banjo, shining out like a beacon.
