A moderate opener which can go to THE ROAD TO FAME. Eoin Doyle’s charge has returned from a two-year break in good form, running well in two bumpers before a promising hurdling debut behind Glengouly at Gowran. Friends N Commerce was well supported when a close fourth behind Mankhool over 2m5f at Thurles and, though this could prove on the short side, he should get into contention. Winning bumper Gaelic Arc didn’t show much on his only start over timber last August but Lodge Prince showed a bit more potential at Leopardstown.
