Several are penalised for winning maiden hurdles including Get Rich Die Plyin, an easy winner at Punchestown and sure to be thereabouts at the finish. Friary Rock and Jacksons Gold have already been beaten under penalties while West Cork Wildway scored over a shorter trip before beaten in a handicap. at Listowel. But the race conditions allow STREETS OF DOYEN to go unpunished despite landing a couple of handicaps over today’s trip at Roscommon and Gowran and John McConnell’s charge may well take advantage on these terms. Coolbane Boy is preferred to Lead Light To Dawn of the remainder
