Formscan By John O'Riordan - With Paul Townend in the saddle, BLUE TRIX(2) would appear the pick of the two Willie Mullins contenders. Third on her most recent start at Downpatrick, the daughter of Blue Bresil is clearly open to plenty of improvement on just her third career outing and stepping up in trip here should see the five-year-old open her account. Stablemate Ronnie's Rascal might give the selection most to do. A 104-rated filly, she has been placed on her last two starts. Kilbeggan runner-up Tutu Twist is another with decent claims. Arguably unlucky to bump into a smart rival last time, the Henry de Bromhead-trained mare came into that contest with decent placed form.
