Don Diablo gained reward for his consistency with a victory over the trip at Down Royal. Jordan Gainford's claim will aid his cause again but THE CATHAL DON looked an improved performer when seeing off The Greek at Kilbeggan and Henry De Bromhead's charge can go in again. Coulonces beat subsequent winner Manitopark AA on her first start for Gavin Cromwell at Fairyhouse then found 2m4f in a Punchestown handicap beyond her and this is more her level. Fort William looks next best despite being 0-14 with just one placed effort to his name.
