Doonard Prince gained the ninth victory of his career here a fortnight ago when he had Mi Esperanza and FACE OFF in the places and May Remain back in fourth. The third didn't get the best of runs and looks to have a good chance of gaining her second course and distance victory. Pillar was a long way behind in that race but that wasn't his form and he gave weight and a length beating to Rag Tatter over 6f at Fairyhouse earlier. Enter The Red and Harry Speed were engaged at the Curragh yesterday.
