NOT TOO REAL BAD scored on his only visit here last month, with Mount Ruapehu well beaten, and was racing in a much stronger handicap when a close sixth at the Curragh last week. Primo Uomo was in good form at Dundalk over the winter without winning but was well beaten behind Only Spoofing when the latter scored at Navan last May. The winner hasn't been in the best of form but has dropped to his lowest mark since that victory. Gabriella's Spirit has been raised 9lb for a comfortable victory over Hallowed Time at Tipperary, her debut for Ken Condon. The runner-up should get closer without reversing the form. Running Cool made all to land a 6f Fairyhouse maiden and, along with Navan maiden winner Parting Glass, makes this a competitive sprint.
