FormscanBy John O'Riordan - Stepping up an additional furlong can see Navan runner-up RION RUBETTE open her account at the second attempt. Despite being sent off 100/1 for that initial outing, the Michael Butler-trained filly travelled particularly well through that race before producing a smart turn of foot to lead inside the final furlong. Although reeled in close home, the daughter of New Bay kept on nicely. On her breeding, she should be better over this longer distance. Rebel Diamond sets a fair standard off a mark of 85. Although a beaten favourite at Sligo recently, the colt is better judged on his previous effort when second in a stronger race at Leopardstown. Course and distance third No Return will find this easier having contested a Group 3 race at the Curragh last month.
