FormscanBy John O'Riordan - THE PUBLICAN'S SON can get off the mark at the fifth attempt. Runner-up on his latest start at Cork last month, the Joseph O'Brien-trained colt sets a strong standard with an official rating of 100. Having had his first three starts in black type races, the son of Beau Liam had his sights lowered last time and, this looks a nice opportunity to get his head in front. Second on his introduction at Naas last September, the Michael O'Callaghan-trained Bamako Beach rates the main danger. Sure to be all the better for that initial experience, the Sands Of Mali colt shouldn't be far away. Placed on his final two starts last term, Starred is another with leading claims.
