Colonel Lesley has changed stables since a very good run at Ballinrobe and it's a surprise to see Conor McNamara is still able to claim 2lb in this conditionals' race. Mick Charlie has been raised 9lb for his victory over this trip at Kilbeggan where his stamina came into play. Sean O'Keeffe can't use his claim this time so Declan Queally's charge has a lot more to do. Moyode Lady definitely needs further though testing ground should make this a real test while winning point-to-pointer Call His Bluff is another suited by further. MRS DAVIES, now with Gordon Elliott, showed some potential when trained in the UK and may be worth chancing off what could be a lenient mark.
