FormscanBy Donal Murphy - A good quality contest that is likely to produce plenty of future winners. Phillapa Sue has been placed on her three starts to date and is likely to have plenty of supporters with Derek O'Connor booked to ride. Royal Kahala finished second on debut at Naas in March, with Phillapa Sue a place behind. She too is a leading contender here for Peter Fahey and Declan Lavery. Daphne Moon and Zoom Rock represent Gordon Elliott and Willie Mullins respectively and it'll come as no surprise if either prevail. Free Thought and the well-named Mare Quimby are the most interesting of the newcomers. For a selection I'll row in with FANOIR. Sixth in a good quality contest at Down Royal in August, she had previous winners Shoe String and Fairytale Bliss in behind. The daughter of Arctic Cosmos should come on plenty for that effort and looks capable of making her presence felt here.
