Waterville Rock made a promising start in a Cork bumper on heavy ground but couldn't find extra on slightly quicker going at Killarney. He should be thereabouts in a poor contest in which Nina Carberry's mount Spicy Fruity is certain to attract attention after a fair effort behind Kalanisi King at Tramore last week. The latter will be hard to beat but it's RIGHTBACK ATYA who gets the nod on his bumper debut after a very promising run over timber at Sligo. The consistent-but-limited point-to-pointer Wither Or Not looks best of the remainder.
