Gavin Ryan picked up the winning ride in last year’s renewal when partnering Dawn Hoofer for Jim Bolger and they team-up again with TROSSACHS (NAP). The Godolphin colt won a maiden at Limerick recently and further progress is expected now handicapping. Hasankey has plenty to find with the selection on latest running while De Name Escapes Me finished less than a length in front of Recent Revelations when landing a maiden at Roscommon on his debut on the Flat. Olympic Honour won under today’s apprentice at Gowran though the latter can’t utilise his 7lb allowance today and Leopardstown runner-up Walking On Glass is preferred. Last year’s third Moktamel ended last season with a victory at Tramore while Red Striker made a winning debut for Ger Lyons at Cork and this extra distance should suit. Noble Expression has switched yards since landing a claimer at Wolverhampton.
