FormscanBy Donal Murphy - The Willie Mullins-trained FOUR CLEAN ACES should prove hard to beat, as she bids to follow-up on her narrow debut success at Tipperary. The form of that race has since been boosted by runner-up World Of Fortunes and fifth place finisher Mousey Brown. They both claimed Wexford bumpers last month, with the former particularly impressive in what looked a decent contest. The selection is out of a seven-time winning sister to Royal Alphabet, who was successful eight times for Mullins, with his biggest triumph coming in Grade 2 company over flights. Dark Image and Final Decision are the other winners in the line-up, with the Derek O'Connor ridden latter given second preference. Newcomers Avakate and Cladagh Pearl warrant respect coming from the yards of Andy Slattery and Sam Curling.
