Usa had subsequent winner Stop The Clock in second and today's rival Faranadooney in third when scoring over the course and distance last month and though the weights favour the latter he's since run poorly on the Flat. NORAH STARR is still a maiden over hurdles and could have done without a 2lb rise for her narrow defeat by Honey Bach at Sligo but this looks a good opportunity for Denis Hogan's mare and she can gain her first success. Moonlone Lane has found some form and may have found heavy ground against him last time after a very good run at Fairyhouse.
