Jacks Dante landed a maiden point at Cloyne last month but couldn't improve on that effort in a better race at Dromahane last week. MOSSEY JOE gained a debut pointing success by 10 lengths then went to Stradbally for a winners-of-one a couple of weeks ago and duly obliged by double that amount in a fast time. Willie Austin's charge looks sure to give a good account in what is a tricky race. Mark Fagan's Kanesh has found his form with a vengeance and could hardly have been more impressive in the confined hunts at Castletown while Island Peak found Gowran's 2m2f flat course on the short side after landing his two previous points.
