FormscanBy Michael Graham - SHOEBOX KING'S third place in Fairyhouse last month got a terrific boost on Monday, so he is taken to make the breakthrough. The runner-up from Fairyhouse ran an absolute stormer to be third in the incredibly valuable Ballyhane Stakes race in Naas. Arges performed with credit at Naas when second in the Ballyhane consolation race and should be in the mix if swiftly turned out again. He has been placed four times this season. Ken Condon's Areille made her debut at Fairyhouse and was a length and a half behind Shoebox King in fourth. There was plenty of promise of better things to come in that performance. Takana isn't out of it after her fourth place on debut in Cork.
