Mi Esperanza scored on her only start on the track and is just 2lb higher, though she finished behind SNOW PATCH when the latter led everywhere but the line at the Curragh last month. The latter wouldn't want any more rain but will take some catching from a 1lb lower mark. Teddy Boy is running well enough but keeps on climbing the ratings without winning and though Hija De La Luna has been dropped 3lb from her reappearance at Down Royal she looks high enough for what she's achieved. My Good Brother has won around here and ran quite well at Bellewstown after a long absence though is probably warming up for a winter at Dundalk.
