FormscanBy Donal Murphy - INFORAPENNY and Pretty Little Liar appear the two to focus on, with preference for the Mark Fahey trained former. An eye-catching fourth on his debut for Fahey at Navan last month, he since finished second at Clonmel where he wasn't helped by a mistake two out. A half-brother to seven-time winner Prickly, he appears to be progressing and will be helped by the five-pound claim of Richie Deegan. Pretty Little Liar, who has won twice on the level this year, finished ahead of the selection when they met at Navan. The eight-year-old has filled the runner-up spot on her last three starts and would be a deserving winner. He'stheone showed definite ability when trained by Gavin Cromwell and it'll be interesting to see how he fares on debut for Pat Martin. Top-weight Well Joey is capable of making his presence felt, while others of note are Arch Melody and Dominant Beet. The latter was the subject of sustained market support on her racecourse debut at Wexford in August and she has her first start in handicap company now.
