FormscanBy Donal Murphy - Siding with a horse who has yet to win in a winners' bumper mightn't be the wisest decision, but STARTING FIFTEEN has the ability to take this. A fine second in Listed company on debut, he since finished third of 24 at the Punchestown festival in April, with Galileo Sand a place behind. That Joseph O'Brien-trained bay has won twice in the interim and beat That Danny Feeling and Minella Emperor at Killarney last month. An easy winner over the course and distance in May, Samba Train is sure to have plenty of supporters, while it'll be interesting to see how Casterly Rock fares, as he bids to complete a unique opening/closing day Harvest Festival double. Stylishly opening his account last month, Parnell Street is another leading contender, while Jisco De Brem will have to bounce back from a disappointing Galway effort if he is to feature.
