Sixhandsinmypocket is 0-15 but ran his best race so far when runner-up in a maiden at Limerick last month. LITTLETWINKLESTAR is less exposed, however, and she was keeping on over a slightly shorter trip here last time. Another mare, Sarah Beara, got off the mark in a handicap for the first time at Wexford on Friday but will have to shoulder a penalty. No Thanks ran twice on the Flat at Galway after finishing second to Father Jed, second reserve in this, here last month and is another to consider.
