Formscan - A case can be made for most of these and, with that in mind, only a tentative vote can go to MUSKERRY ROCK. The seven-year-old landed a hunters chase at Wexford before switching to Dan Skelton's yard and is likely to have more in the locker now that he steps back into the handicap ranks. Inis Oirr, Ira Hayes and Settle Down Jill all enter calculations too.

Quotes on Neon Diamond (IRE)
She had a couple of good runs but has been disappointing to be honest. It worked out today and it is great for Liam Clancy, her owner, who owns the Abbey Hotel and sponsors Donegal football. They have a big week ahead next week and it is a pity he couldn't be here today although his sisters are here, which is great.

Quotes on Ira Hayes (IRE)
We needed a change of luck as we've had a horrific April. This is probably his minimum trip and we had to force him a bit, which probably didn't suit him. He is really a galloping horse, but it was just the conditions of the race suited. We got our bit of luck and I'm delighted for the lads (Ira Hayes Partnership) seven-year-old, they've been very patient with him. He hit the line quite well, he wasn't tired or anything. Danny said that up in trip you'll see a better horse. Hopefully, there is fun to be had with him.
