Well Joey won a Hexham handicap in March before an impressive victory over 2m7f at Downpatrick in May. It's a surprise to see him dropping back in trip on his reappearance and CAPTAIN COBAJAY could be the one to benefit. He looked like taking a hand when falling at Wexford then showed his first real sign of form at Tramore before a convincing victory back over the former track. Fairymount Boy doesn't win often and is still 10lb higher than his latest victory last summer while Ballybrowney Walk is 0-12 over fences and never looked like getting into contention at Listowel on Saturday.
