JUNIOR BEE, first reserve in the 5.15 here yesterday, was racing on good ground for the first time when beaten a length in a Cork handicap and Rachael Blackmore is a significant booking.

Gotthenod had slipped to a very handy mark when beaten a neck at Limerick last month and has only been raised 1lb while Close Enough was staying on over 2m at Tramore. Toor Hawk has yet to win but ran her best race to date at Cork last time.
