Anna Montana has dropped to a very fair mark and ran her best race for some time over the C&D last month. SPORTS CASUAL hasn't had much experience for his age but was in tremendous form at this time last year. With just three runs under his belt this season and a drop in the weights he looks ready to get back on the winning trail. Liberty To Rock is just 1lb higher than when scoring over the C&D in September but he never got involved on a return visit three weeks later. Cailin Coillteach showed plenty of promise in her first season and Andy Oliver's filly may not be too inconvenienced by a long absence as she ran well on her debut.
