In depth
Verdict
Plenty of these are course winners including FASTAR a winner here last March who returned after a long break to be beaten a neck over the track and trip by Zig Zag Zyggy, who was receiving 8lb. He holds Arcanears on that run but Curragh maiden winner Rough Diamond didn't get the run of the race and can do better. Mia Mento began her career with a victory at Leopardstown and later went to the UK where she failed to add to her tally and is now with Jessica Harrington. Midnight Fire stepped up to 7f to score on the latter track and was engaged over that trip in the 6.10 at Cork last night. Arnhem has produced all of his best form at Dundalk.
