BALLYADAM APPROACH was returning from a very long absence when falling at the second last at Thurles last month but he was travelling well at the time and the winner went on to complete a hat-trick. If none the worse for the mishap he can start making up for lost time. Easyondeye was very well supported in that Thurles event but made a bad mistake and was then impeded which put him out of contention. He ran well on his next start behind Treacy's Star at Punchestown and holds Fla's Long Shot on that run. Winning point-to-pointer Murphys Filly has run poorly in her two starts under Rules but De Benno was having only his third start over fences when a very close third to Ardmillan over this track and trip last week and should get into the action.
