FormscanBy Donal Murphy - In first time cheekpieces, HYPERSONIC MISSILE might be able to make the breakthrough over flights, with this drop in trip likely to suit. The winner of a bumper when in the care of John McConnell, the five-year-old came in for plenty of market support on his most recent outing at Punchestown. Third on that occasion, he finished just half-a-length behind subsequent Listowel victor Rising Dust. Getabelle will have to defy top-weight if she is to complete a hat-trick. The Liam Cusack-trained seven-year-old hasn’t been seen since October and will be aided by the 7lb claim of Carl Millar. A winner at Tramore in April, Ian Donoghue’s Brownstone is a leading contender, while I Am Spider Man and handicap debutant Mayday Games are others of interest.
