Previous results
In depth
Verdict
Iamastartoo has been a bit disappointing since a promising debut at Wexford though that was on good going. Danse Idol comfortably won a point at Boulta in November while Melior should be better for her opening run at Thurles and Jamie Codd rides. Derek O'Connor is on board Indefatigable, who has a Flat pedigree and should have plenty of pace though it's another newcomer, RELEGATE, who is by Flemensfirth out of a winning bumper/hurdler, who looks to have been found a winning opportunity.
