FormscanBy Alan Magee - STORMBREAKER stayed well on the Flat winning twice for James Fanshawe and following a lengthy absence, has gradually progressed in three outings for current connections. The selection put in an improved round of jumping when landing a 2m2f maiden at Listowel and should be suited by this longer trip. Apple’s Of Bresil has always been held in good regard and Barry Connell indicated he prefers conventional hurdles after easily winning a Gowran maiden last month. Disco Dancer and Run For Harry were only separated by a neck when placed behind Sonny May (won again since) at Gowran, while Palamon and Brave Fortune are others to consider.
