PRINCELY CONN had been chasing before reverting to hurdles with a victory over the course and distance. He was in touch when slipping up two out in a better race at Galway and can get back on the winning trail. Coulonces won a Fairyhouse maiden in April but has changed stables after landing a Bellewstown claimer last month while Feel Des Mottes landed a Clonmel handicap back in May before a promising return to action at Down Royal last week. Kitty Galore finished runner-up in that latter event after attempting to make all. A mistake at the last didn't help her cause and a similar effort would see her go close but she's just held by the selection on earlier form. Tramore maiden winner Reverse Polarity is another to note from a fair opening handicap mark.
