Pumped Up Kicks has been an impressive winner at Perth this summer and there should be more to come while Railway Zira ran well behind Little King Robin at Bellewstown though she's yet to prove she stays this far. The same could be said of Urtheoneiwant though she certainly wasn't stopping when slamming her rivals over 2m1f at Ballinrobe. She gets the four-year-old allowance and will be difficult to beat but ICY REPLY may have her measure. Dessie Hughes' is the same age and doubly penalised for her victories at Cork and Tipperary, both over 3m, but she looked just as good over today's trip when narrowly beaten by Desertmore Stream at Galway and can return to winning ways.
