FormscanBy John O'Riordan - Galway Hurdle fifth BEAUVALLON(1) can land this valuable prize for trainer Willie Mullins. A lightly raced son of Camelot, the gelding won twice from three starts over flights last season. Although well beaten by the reopposing Mino Des Mottes at Bellewstown on his reappearance, that latter race may have been a prep run for the Ballybrit feature. With more scope for improvement than the majority of rivals, he is given the nod. Leopardstown Grade 2 runner-up Adrienne looks the biggest danger. The Ted Walsh-trained filly had a recent pipe opener on the Flat and this is sure to have been the plan. Mino Des Mottes and Ben Hur also enter calculations in a typically competitive renewal of this juvenile contest.
