FormscanBy Donal Murphy - Not much form to go on here, with just four horses having run previously. I'm going to take a chance on one of the newcomers, and the Tony Martin trained BLAIR PERRONE has the profile of a horse who should make his presence felt. The five-year-old son of Rudimentary, who will race in the familiar silks of John Breslin, is a full-brother to the ill-fated Rock Steady. He won a bumper on his debut at Fairyhouse back in 2007, and had a whole host of subsequent winners behind him. Robbie McNamara, who has already won two bumpers this week, takes the ride on the selection, and he should give a good account of himself. Attribution, who cost €97,000 as a three-year-old, is sure to go close under Nina Carberry for Gordon Elliott. The son of Alhaarth won on his sole point-to-point start at Durrow in March, and he is a half-brother to 2009 Champion Hurdle winner Punjabi. Two other newcomers of note are Beneficial Society who is a full-sister to Horendus Hulabaloo, and the Dessie Hughes trained Rodger Roo who is out of Just Cassandra who won the Champion Hunters Chase at the Festival back in 2004.
