FormscanBy Mark Nunan - SHANNON GRAY could never land a blow behind the front-running winner Kilashee here on Sunday but kept on nicely to finish fourth on her handicap debut. The daughter of Cloudings can build on that for her local stable which has been amongst the winners on the Flat at this Festival with the gambled-on Drombeg Duke. Cahirdown Boy is another turning out again quickly and he’s down in grade after a very creditable fifth to Socially Distant over course and distance on Monday. Killarney winner Yulong Voice was touched off under a penalty at Bellewstown and comes here in great heart, while Definiteadare enjoyed a fine spell of form in the spring and should be better for last month’s reappearance at Roscommon where he wasn’t beaten far over three miles.
