His good Curragh form late last season and early this term has been on very soft ground; also testing when he won at Galway last October; any rain would improve his prospects, further drying would be a negative. |

Solid form in handicaps for John O'Donoghue; solid efforts in handicaps at the Curragh (1m, sft-hvy) and Leopardstown (1m2f, yld-sft) on first two runs for this stable; up against it on the figures here but if there's heavy rain she could sneak into the money. |

Went up an aggregate 21lb for three handicap wins last season; seemed to be improving when second at Limerick in April, beaten only a nose; Curragh run eight days ago (17th of 19) was too bad to be true; 7-2 chance then, interesting to see if the market is prepared to overlook that showing. |
