FormscanBy Mark Nunan - VADSA QUEEN was only fifth when odds-on at Ballinrobe just over a year ago but was too keen on that occasion and a repeat of her debut second at the Punchestown festival would make her very hard to beat. She was a place ahead of a horse now rated 130 over hurdles on that occasion and that was on a sound surface. Russellsbelle was second in a summer bumper at Wexford last year and filled the same position in a maiden hurdle at Tipperary when returning from a lay-off. Her race fitness will stand to her. Royal Hollow is the most interesting of the newcomers. The homebred daughter of Beat Hollow is a half-sister to stablemate Smooth Tom who is now rated 96 on the Flat after winning at Leopardstown and narrowly failing to follow up at the Curragh last weekend.
