FormscanBy Donal Murphy - None of the seven can be safely ruled out. MISTER BEETON has some solid form to his name and was a good winner on his debut over flights at Roscommon last month. The Shane Nolan trained five-year-old might be able to follow-up now with Rachael Blackmore an interesting jockey booking. Vinnie Is Busy was behind the selection at Roscommon and he gave the form a boost by scoring at Ballinrobe on Monday. Minella Youngy clearly appreciated the step-up in trip when winning easily at Kilbeggan on his most recent start and it'll come as no surprise if he manages to go in again. Henry de Bromhead is represented by the hat-trick seeking Downtown Queen, with Conor McNamara retaining the ride. The highest rated of those with a mark, the Presenting bay is sure to have plenty of supporters. Kilbarry Chianti finished behind Downtown Queen when they clashed at Limerick last month, but she might be able to reverse the form with Liam McKenna taking a valuable 7lb off.
