Verdict

Derek O‘Connor was on board when DOWN MEMORY LANE easily won a point for Jonathan Fogarty last October and again when landing a very strong Fairyhouse bumper for Gordon Elliott after being bought by J P McManus. The top amateur keeps the ride with Jack Kennedy on board Timmy Tuesday for the yard. He obviously has plenty of talent as shown when a very good third in a Cork maiden hurdle but looks one to be wary of after running out in his other two starts. It is difficult to make a case for the remainder with experience so Gavin Cromwell‘s newcomer Whale Harbour, who went for €92,000 as a three-year-old and is out of a winning hurdler, could prove best of the remainder.
