FormscanBy Dan McEvoy - A chance is taken on FORTUITY for last years winning connections of Jessica Harrington and Shane Foley. The E50,000 yearling is a half sister to Irish 2,000 Guineas victor Phoenix Of Spain and if professional enough on debut, he can stamp his authority on this contest. Raphello is somewhat exposed after three runs at Cork and already receiving a handicap rating of 75 but experience could count around here and its telling that Joseph O'Brien has wished to run this colt in another maiden instead of a nursery where he would surely have a chance. Another newcomer, Pliny may be able to complete the frame with the notable booking of Colin Keane catching the eye, whilst the other E50,000 yearling Felix Somary being worth a market check beforehand.
