Verdict

The Folkes Choice probably wouldn't have beaten Rising Time at Tramore but was still there when falling at the last and she will make a bold bid for compensation. DARA TANGO has 13lb to concede but he's due a victory after two fine runs at Cork, the latest when just touched off by Casimir Road. He can go one better though Captain Ocana looked promising before finishing lame on his latest start in December and should be winning soon. Somethingdifferent hasn't been seen since January last year but had shown potential earlier and is another to keep an eye on.
