Munshid dropped down to 5f to score at Dundalk with Blood Moon in third and More Than Munny close up in fourth. The latter pair have chances of reversing the form on the revised terms but LEATH NA HOIBRE may have their measure. Brendan Duke's charge went up 6lb for landing a Curragh nursery and didn't really perform well in better company later but the assessor has seen fit to drop him 7lb from his last run in October and catching him fresh may prove the best option. Somebodytoldme didn't act on very heavy going at Sligo last time and is better judged on her narrow defeat by Know at Navan in September.
