Enjoy D'allen probably had too much use made of her when disappointing at Downpatrick after a narrow defeat when held up at Kilbeggan. TALK OF THE TOWN was very impressive in beating odds-on stable companion Geraldo in a Kilbeggan bumper and looks a smart prospect for jumping. Hand In My Pocket also beat an odds-on chance in a Bellewstown bumper with a subsequent winner a long way behind while Flat winner Kaatskill Nap, placed in all three starts over timber, looks the type to make major progress this campaign. Dual bumper winner The Little Yank ran in stronger company than this last winter and is another to consider.
