CLUAN DARA arrives fresh from landing a gamble at Limerick. He’s been raised 6lb but won this contest last year off a similar mark with today’s reserve Bellgrove back in fourth and Crimson Chief further behind so another bold bid is expected. Rachael Blackmore gets the leg-up on Walking The Walk, who finished fourth at Limerick last time, while Magic Piper was second at Downpatrick in between poor efforts at the same track. Points winner Rule Of June has raced only once over regulation fences but Chief Seattle is a reserve with a chance if lining-up.
