Stooshie looked a real mudlark when just failing to hold off Roseriver Has over 2m2f at Downpatrick and has an obvious chance of going one better over this slightly shorter trip. Nina Carberry is on board First Approach, a winner in what looked a strong maiden point at Dromahane in April, while Some Day Soon looked the likely winner at Roscommon until headed near the finish. JONNIGRAIG couldn't quite get to Peacocks Secret at Kilbeggan but had the remainder well beaten and can go one better, though The Gunner Murphy is one to note in the market under Derek O'Connor.
