JACK THE HAT won a shade cosily at Tramore last Sunday. Noel Lawlor's charge has been upped 7lb but looks ahead of the handicapper and can follow up. He's already beaten a handful of these with Super Vic getting the closest to him at Ballinrobe earlier in the summer and the latter re-opposes on better terms today. Elsie Freda has more to find with the selection and Feisty Lass could prove a bigger threat on her form at Perth in July. Father Jack makes most appeal of the remainder off his current mark.
