Verdict
Robert Whearty brought Charming Girl with a late run to catch Aussie Girl on the line at Fairyhouse and can confirm the places despite being slightly worse off. Son Of Sampers is improving fast and shouldn't be inconvenienced by stepping up in trip after scoring over the minimum at Cork. CASH OR CRYPTO (NAP), a winner over an extended 6f, found the minimum just too short at the Curragh but was beaten less than a length and can get back on the winning trail. Not Just Yet had a bit in hand at Listowel so a 3lb rise looks manageable while All Things Nice was in touch for a long way in a one mile Listed race at Dundalk in March.
