Kilashee was starting to feel the pinch when unseating at Fairyhouse on Saturday though that was over three miles and he had led for a long way. Kings Halo won over timber in the spring and very nearly scored over fences at Clonmel when headed on the line. He has been raised 3lb but this is not much tougher. The front-running Rudy Catrail went clear before unseating at the eighth at Fairyhouse three weeks ago having fallen in the race won by Glenmalure Lodge at Ballinrobe earlier. That was the latter‘s only success in 26 starts bur she cannot be ruled out. INTERSKY SUNSET (NAP) followed a victory between the flags with another over hurdles at Gowran and returns to regulation fences on what looks a very lenient mark so she looks the one to beat.
