FormscanBy John O'Riordan - Third in a Grade 1 novice hurdle when last seen, FLEUR IN THE PARK can make a winning debut over fences. A six-year-old son of Walk In The Park, the Andrew Slattery trained gelding kept smart company throughout last season. Seldom out of the frame, he has the potential to make up into a decent chaser. Taponthego, who finished runner-up to the selection in a maiden hurdle at Wexford last October, looks a big danger. The Henry de Bromhead trained gelding finished fourth in the Martin Pipe at the Cheltenham Festival and has jumping experience from between the flags. Franciscan Rock may prefer further, but has to be respected.
