Peace In The West defied some sloppy jumping to score over track and trip last month but didn't get away with it at Navan on his next start. Lughnasa is a very promising type who gained an impressive maiden victory at Gowran and can go well despite her big weight and Truckin All Night stayed on very strongly in testing conditions to win his maiden at Listowel. WHISKEY AND RYE completed a double and looked unfortunate not to make it a hat-trick here at the end of last month. He was totally unsuited by a slow pace and, in this big field with a strong gallop likely, he can get back on the winning trail. Sherika has shot up the weights and may just prefer further but Tipped Up Harry has won on his only two visits to the track, the latest over fences, and looks well enough treated to give a good account.
