FormscanBy Donal Murphy - A competitive affair with SMALL TOWN HERO the suggestion. On what was his first start for Ian Donoghue, the Jet Away five-year-old made all at Roscommon earlier this month and might still be ahead of the handicapper off a revised mark of 81. The first time cheekpieces that were deployed at Roscommon remain in place now, with Conor Stone Walsh again taking the ride. In truth, a case can be made for many others, with the locally-trained Hatfield Hammer sure to have plenty of supporters. No worse than third on his last five starts, another bold bid can be expected from this course winning bay. An encouraging third on her debut for Sam Curling at Downpatrick, it'll come as no surprise if Fire Coral manages to go a few places better, while Ballerina Boxer, Lummi Island, Onefortheditch and handicap debutant Sylvia's Secret are others for the shortlist.
