EASY MATE will probably be a warm order for this and it's not difficult to see why. Dermot Weld's filly started favourite for her debut at Galway last August though couldn't quite cope with Noble Galileo but she made amends on her next start a month later at Dundalk when beating the useful Leblon a head. There looks more to come from her and she can make a winning return though Dafarabad, a winner after a six-months break over timber at Sligo last month, looks a live threat. Great Wisdom made a winning debut on polytrack in October 2008 and only ran once on fast ground subsequently when producing his best form behind Haralan at Leopardstown.
