Verdict

The Little yank is progressing all the time over fences and makes a quick reappearance after scoring at Sligo on Wednesday. Stablemate The Dara Man pulled up in a handicap on the same card but Call Me Lyreen completed a double in mid-summer before a cracking effort in a Galway Grade 3. The latter couldn't get close to Authorized Art at Killarney last time and the winner's yard should take this with either EASY GAME or Kemboy. The former has a fitness advantage over his stablemate having completed a four-timer over the summer before well beaten in the Galway Plate. He's rated 6lb lower than Kemboy and has to concede that amount and though the latter has performed almost exclusively at Grade 1 level he might just need this before tackling top company again.
