FormscanBy Tom Weekes - MINELLA MACHINE has already proven himself as a smart performer and his Christmas fourth-placing to The Mourne Rambler reads very well. Bought for E350,000 following his point-to-point success, the selection is a half-brother to two smart winners and, at Leopardstown, showed good ability behind last week’s Cheltenham-winner The Mourne Ramble, while the fifth has also scored subsequently. Willie Mullins’ Fitzroy is a sibling to two blacktype performers and is likely to be smart while Coq Noir was purchased for E200,000 following a pointing success but is long absent. Tell The Boys is by the same sire as Gaelic Warrior and could go well.
