Verdict

Winning point-to-pointer Irregularheartbeat makes her handicap debut and probably needs further but Coole Arcade ran her best race to date when runner-up at Tramore. Danegeld easily beat today's rival De Bennette at Punchestown on New Year's Eve but then ran a shocker over an extra 3f at Naas so prospective punters will need to forgive that last run. Fallen Forest, who was travelling easily when unseating 3 out in that Punchestown race, has been well beaten subsequently. JUST ANOTHER LADY had been racing over much further before joining Andrew McNamara and ran easily her best race to date when runner-up over the track and trip last time so a similar effort could see her finally get off the mark.
