Fleurys Fort was engaged in the 7.45 here last night, a race he won last year, while Bring The Bacon was also entered in the same event. John Adams certainly deserved his success in a Sligo maiden but is now 13lb higher than when beaten a neck in a Kilbeggan handicap. The veteran Supreme Vinnie won here in September and should be at his peak after three runs this summer while King's Song ran his best race for a very long time at Downpatrick. Master Cornwall keeps going up in the weights without winning but is still respected but the vote goes to DOUBLE WINDSOR, who bounced back to form with an emphatic victory over fences at Limerick and is equally adept over hurdles.
