CAHERONAUN wasn't the best of jumpers over hurdles but made a steady start over fences behind Cnoc Seoda at Thurles and with that experience under his belt should gain his first chase success. Evesham Star was beaten when unseating her rider that day and looks held. Sir Harry Cash was consistent enough in maidens over timber and ran well for a long way on his chasing bow at Cork while recent point-to-point winners Chance A Grand, Feabhra and Bee Fallon can make their presence felt.
