THE EYES HAVE IT won over the track and trip in October and returned to winning ways when holding off Ishebayorgrey and tonight's rival Mr Right at Fairyhouse a couple of weeks ago. The runner-up in that latter event won on Friday so the form looks solid and Andy Oliver's charge is taken to defy a 4lb rise. Falcao went up 10lb for scoring at Cork last month and couldn't handle the extra at the Curragh but Unyielding made all over a mile at Limerick before running very well over the same trip here. The three-year-old Camellia Japonica had run in three strong maidens before scoring over 6f on fast going at the Curragh and she looks a bright prospect who could have been let in lightly for her handicap debut. Club Wexford hasn't been in the best of form but has slipped to a very favourable mark.
