FormscanBy Mark Nunan - Ronan McNally has been mopping up handicap hurdles across the water with the well-treated Vee Dancer and ALL CLASS can add to the stable’s gains here. The six-year-old was a facile winner over fences at Punchestown last month, admittedly in an unusual race where most of the field never landed a blow on two horses who got a break on their rivals, and can race off a hurdles mark 12lb lower than her new chase rating. She did burst on her most recent start in this discipline which does sound a note of caution. Coole Arcade was fourth at Limerick last month and may improve on that seasonal and stable debut while Delias Pet wasn’t beaten far in first-time blinkers in a decent contest at Thurles and could go well at a price. Dragon’s Pass has a good course record but lacks a recent run and her customary headgear.
