FormscanBy Mark Nunan - DOWNTOWN QUEEN has been rerouted here after being scratched from her intended debut at Roscommon a few days ago due to drying ground and looks interesting on pedigree. The Presenting filly is a half-sister to smart jumpers Puffin Billy, Zuzka and Tycoon Prince who were all very capable in this sphere as well. Derek O’Connor has been booked for Birdsandthebees and this daughter of Walk In The Park, out a bumper-winning mare, is another noteworthy newcomer. Of those with experience, She’s No Secret was unfancied but ran well in a winners’ race behind Merlin Giant at Ballinrobe and the third home that day went close at Clonmel during the week. She should come on for the run, while another to show ability first time out was Rayndanse who was backed at fancy prices when fourth at Cork and is a full-sister to a bumper winner.
