FormscanBy Eamonn Murphy - Seamie Heffernan is second favourite in at least one bookmaker’s list, to be champion jockey this year. There’s just the sole Ballydoyle contender here, MOUNT EVEREST, and Heffernan should be there or thereabouts aboard the back-in-trip son of Galileo. Anthony Van Dyck, Wichita and principally Love, showed the well-being of the Aidan O’Brien horses at Newmarket over the last few days. Since last seen here, at Leopardstown in October, Mount Everest has been on his travels, taking in the Breeders’ Cup, the Hong Kong Vase, and a race at Riyadh in Saudi Arabia at the end of February. O’Brien’s son Joseph, supplies some of the main opposition to Mount Everest, in the form of Buckhurst (Wayne Lordan) and San Andreas (Declan McDonogh). Trais Fluors has his first start on Irish soil since joining Ken Condon from Andre Fabre. Meanwhile Inhale debuts for Henry de Bromhead.
