LOCAL CELEBRITY is likely to be a warm order here despite an absence of a year after being beaten a short-head by Miss Ryland on his racecourse debut at Naas. That was a decent enough performance and with improvement virtually guaranteed he can take care of winning point-to-pointer Madam Bovary, who looked as though she would be suited by further when fourth over this trip at Wexford last month. Charlie Swan's newcomer Good Time Harry may prove best of the remainder with Nina Carberry booked.
