FormscanBy Mark Nunan - TALK IN THE PARK had some useful form for Mags Mullins and was fourth in a valuable handicap at Navan in December. On his second outing for Ross O'Sullivan and after a three-month break, the six-year-old was runner-up in a competitive maiden at Ballinrobe and this looks a good opportunity at a venue where he was placed last year. Step Out was runner-up in a bumper at Ayr in March and has filled the same position in two starts over hurdles at this venue. He is likely to contend again for his local yard. Ashlia Dancer was third over course and distance on her penultimate start and returned from a 19-month layoff to finish a creditable second at Tramore. %0A%0A%0A
