In depth

Verdict

Shake Him Up showed nothing until well supported at Down Royal last month where he wasn't beaten far despite running around in the closing stages. That was a poor race but this is no better so losses will be expected to be recouped with Brian Hayes taking over the reins. However, ONE FREE MAN, whose first three runs were on heavy going, showed potential at Roscommon last month and with faster ground conditions can make enough progress to get off the mark. Orcadian Symphony did a bit better at Sligo when returning from a break so there should be more to come while winning point-to-pointer Kilgorey has a couple of reasonable runs to his credit and can get involved.
