Fridaynightlights, a winner at Fairyhouse and Kilbeggan in April, wasn't beaten far in a tough Punchestown handicap a few days later but looked to be feeling the effects when pulled up at Ballinrobe. He's been given a break and should go well. My Betty wasn't far behind him at Kilbeggan and has a chance at the weights while ROACHDALE HOUSE had been racing on the Flat before reverting to hurdles at Roscommon where he just failed to catch Timiyan. He could have done without a 6lb rise but looks to have every chance of going one better. Mr Moondance doesn't win often and could now be a few pounds high after his victory at Wexford in May.
