Kemboy relished the step up to this trip to land a handicap at Killarney but faces some smart prospects here. Deans Road made too many mistakes when a close fourth behind today's rivals Baily Cloud and Tiger Roll at Killarney and there's little between that trio here. The latter pair were firmly put in their place in a Grade 3 at Galway last week by the four-year-old filly TOCORORO, who overcame a few novice mistakes to gain a very impressive victory. She's won on heavy going over hurdles so the ground won't be a problem and her allowances should enable her to see off this competition before going on to better things.
