Ankud chased home Cut The Rope at Naas, a race that has worked out quite well, but was then well beaten when odds-on at Gowran. Dollar Nolimit was well supported on his debut at Punchestown and was less than a length behind the odds-on winner, with Master Otis four lengths back, while Derek O'Connor is on board Downmexicoway, an impressive winner at Belharbour in February. Ninth Loch will be tuned up for this but a chance is taken with RAINBOW LILY, who is a half-sister to a winning bumper and has Jamie Codd in the saddle.
