Formscan By Gary Carson - French import CHARME DE FAUST could be another one for Willie Mullins here. The filly was runner-up on her sole outing in her native land, at Auteuil last September. She was held up well off the pace then and survived a blunder at the last before chasing home easy winner Maskina. It was a promising effort. Dawn Coming chased home a smart sort in The Reverend at Cork earlier this month and is entitled to play a big part now. He had Mode Avion behind in fourth when third to Bertutea at Limerick over Christmas and may be able to confirm that form. Triumph Hurdle entry Ismahane is a debutante to note.
