Form & Verdict
Three of his 14 wins have been gained over C&D, and he has struck a vein of form again, having dropped sharply in the ratings; good effort when second of 17 over this trip at Fairyhouse last month; backed that up with third placing over 5f at Bellewstown last week; has a slight edge over much younger stablemate Kwa Herini on Fairyhouse running.

9st 9lb

J: Shane Gray

T: Daragh Bourke

0-15 in Ireland but she finished second of 17 in a Navan handicap (6f, good) in October; former stable have gone 490 days without a winner and interesting to see how she fares in the market starting out for Daragh Bourke (sold 2,600gns in January); no tongue-tie today but the hood returns.

T: Sean Davis

Showed decent form in the early stages of last season; lost form afterwards and last month's comeback run at Fairyhouse was poor; no obvious claims although has been given every chance by the handicapper and upped in trip.
