Formscan By Donal Murphy - While Apple's Of Bresil is likely to prove popular with punters, he failed to justify favouritism when last seen at Galway and it might be worth taking him on. COUMEENOOLE, Colonel Nelson and Taponthego are interesting point-to-point graduates in the line-up, with preference for the Paul Nolan-trained former. Previously in the care of the shrewd Jonathan Fogarty and a winner on debut at Ballindenisk in May, he beat Millforce into second, with that one successful in both starts since. Out of a smart four-time winner, the selection was bought by current connections for 180,000 pounds. The aforementioned Colonel Nelson and Taponthego are both capable of making an impact, while Wexford runner-up Laravie is another leading hope.
