Golden Grimshaw was having his 11th start over timber when landing a Downpatrick maiden but doesn't appear badly treated and can get involved. Carutomark has been running well but may be a few pounds high in the weights now while Credit Box, though very consistent, is still a maiden after 21 starts over timber. QUAI DU ROI has only won twice over hurdles in a long career but looks to have a fair chance of adding to that tally as his close second to Mr Bones at Bellewstown was given a boost when the winner ran a superb race here on Wednesday. Mannin Beach is another maiden and makes his handicap debut under Nina Carberry. His overall form gives him a reasonable chance while Down The Dale won very easily over the trip at Downpatrick and can go well despire a 9lbs rise.
