Finding Joy went up 5lb for her victory at Kilbeggan but it made no difference as she stormed home over an extended 2m5f at Downpatrick. She's up another 8lb but will be difficult to keep out of the money. Touch Of Gold bounced back to form with a comprehensive victory at Clonmel on Thursday though that was over 2m and she's yet to prove she stays this far. DEMI PLIE (NAP) has been running very well over fences and reverts to hurdling on a slightly lower mark. Darragh O'Keeffe again takes the ride and his mount can concede the weight. Cailean's Angel has been in good form but is 12lb higher than when scoring at Bellewstown in July while Amor Verdadero has gone slightly off the boil after landing a maiden on the latter track. Seafield Fox and The Lady Of Brega were engaged in the 3.10 at Wexford yesterday.
