BE FIERCE looked in need of this sort of trip when staying on at Ballinrobe in May and is the type to improve with racing. Happy Victory made a promising comeback at Tramore but didn't appear to enjoy heavy conditions at Wexford three weeks ago and further rain is forecast. Luimneach ran well in a handicap at the same fixture while winning point-to-pointer Lough No Fooey performed with credit in a Fairyhouse handicap a fortnight ago. Famous Agent would have finished much closer on his hurdling debut at Sligo but for a couple of late mistakes.
