Formscan By Eamonn Murphy - In an imaginary match bet this observer would be taking the three apprentice riders here, versus their more senior weigh-room colleagues. The O'Brien-brothers, Donnacha and Joseph, have two good youngsters, Paddy Harnett and Conor Stone-Walsh aboard their representatives, Gloucester and Gold Coast Galleon. This pair obviously can't be left out of calculations. Wesley Joyce is difficult to ignore on VELVET SKIES though, as Mick Mulvany gets his charge out quickly after a fourth place finish in a big sales race at Naas last week. These are calmer waters and veteran owner Frank McNulty may well have a progressive sort to enjoy for the rest of this season into next. Best of the rest may be Glamorously.
