Downtown Queen clearly appreciated a break from the track as she has picked up prizes at Limerick and Downpatrick with the minimum of fuss but MISTER BEETON was tried in some fairly robust company during his time in bumpers and can be anticipated to build upon a fine effort at Roscommon when scoring on his hurdling bow. Vocito was the subject of a gamble at Punchestown earlier in the year so is clearly held in some regard and connections try a hood for the first time. Minella Youngy landed the odds in a maiden hurdle at Kilbeggan having shaped promisingly in previous defeats at Downpatrick and Tipperary. Rotten Row won a bumper on debut for Joseph O’Brien but there’s been little for supporters to cheer since switching yards.
