FormscanBy Michael Graham - The form of JOUEUR MASQUE's opening fourth in a maiden hurdle at Navan in December received several boosts, but he didn't really build upon that when mid-division at Leopardstown over Christmas. He's had time off since then, though, and starts this season in a race that Willie Mullins knows what it takes to win. The 115-rated Harry's Legacy has shown enough to suggest a maiden hurdle could be within his compass. He gets a first-time hood after making no impression in a handicap hurdle at this venue. Arctic Flame's second place behind an odds-on winner at Clonmel brings her into the equation, while Speedy Box, a stablemate of Harry's Legacy, ought to be eyeing prize money.
