Golden Twilight won a Curragh maiden before ending the year with a double over 1m4f at Dundalk. He takes on better opposition her with the lightly-raced SAFECRACKER, another Dundalk winner, looking the type to enjoy a good season. The latter had Hell Bent behind when a close third in a strong handicap at Dundalk in August and can return with a victory though Ahandfulofsummers, who ran in strong company last season and ran well for a long way in the Irish Lincoln, has to enter calculations. Dublin Journal scored on his reappearance last April before narrow defeats in handicaps at Gowran and Leopardstown so a mark of 80 may be underestimating his ability.
