Bravo Team easily landed a Down Royal maiden then wasn't suited by a three-runner race at Roscommon when outpaced. Island Mahee has been sent to the UK for most of her races and has won at Musselburgh and Cartmel, the latest in a strong handicap on the latter track. STORY RORY was always travelling like a winner over the track and trip last time and though hit with a 9lb rise is taken to complete a double. Galon De Vauzelle has struggled from his raised mark after scoring easily over the track and trip in May last year.
