RED TRAIL gained his third victory by a nose at Gowran and, though raised 3lb, his rider only claimed 4lb that day so he's effectively on the same mark. After scoring on soft ground at Sligo, Chica Linda found the going too lively at Clonmel and today's conditions should be ideal. Portreath hasn't won yet but he's been staying on over shorter and looks certain to win soon. Mr Mills was behind the selection at Gowran and is unlikely to turn the tables on these terms while Lisamaria, who was running well in the spring, has been given a break since disappointing when well supported at Navan in June.
