Verdict

Troll D'Oudairies was beaten 18l into second by Tukawhile at Tipperary and that was over 3m so this looks on the short side. CASTLETOWN BRIDGE was having his third start for Tony Martin when a close sixth to Boss's Star at Down Royal and looks to have been found a good opportunity to get off the mark. Kylecrue made a successful debut between the flags at Templemore though his path was made easier when a main rival fell at the second last while Milan Flyer only scrambled home in a point at Maralin in March.
