Finans Bay has been entered up a couple of times in recent weeks so should be ready though he refused to race twice on the Flat in the spring. Timourid won a premier handicap at the Curragh in May and has another attempt at hurdling after unseating on his debut in 2021. Don'tstopthemusic showed some potential at Leopardstown in December, a race that has worked out very well, while dual Flat winner Stormy Jenn has run very well in her two recent starts on the level. Winning bumper SHERODAN gave supporters of the odds-on Ballystone, who was receiving 8lb, a fright at Ballinrobe and with progress likely will be very difficult to beat. Suile Ban was engaged in the 2.00 at Sligo yesterday.
