Johnny Murtagh has won two of the last three and Alabama Pearl finally got off the mark with a convincing all-the-way success at Gowran though she's been raised 12lb. He was in charge of Half Nutz when the latter beat a huge field in this last year and the six-year-old has been going well and is on a winnable mark. His new stable is also represented by NO MORE PORTER, who has been running very well without quite getting there. The assessor has been unable to drop him because of his consistency but his rider's claim can see him back to winning ways. Heavenly Power was well beaten a year ago and his two course victories have been over 6f but Shawaamekh was only beaten a neck off this mark at Fairyhouse on Monday.
