FormscanBy Michael Graham - SECRET WORLD has plenty of British form in the book and is of interest on her Irish debut for Ger O'Leary. Darragh O'Sullivan claims 7lb and leaves her on a mark of 63 which is appealing. Church Mountain has been competing in higher grades on the Polytrack in Dundalk and catches the eye running off 59 with Dylan O'Connor's 7lb claim factored in. Hurricane Helen is another Dundalk regular who could appreciate reverting to grass. The last time she encountered quick ground, she was successful at Cork in August. If Step To Somewhere could get back to the form of her runner-up spot over a similar trip at Clonmel last September, she would enter the equation. Heliogabalus and Seti are others to consider.
