In depth
Verdict
A very low grade handicap with few in form but GOLDEN SANDBANKS was well supported when making most at Limerick and a 5lb rise doesn't look enough to prevent a follow-up. Rossies Tara had shown very little until a much-improved run at Bellewstown where she took the lead two out before headed at the last. That was over 2m4f so today's trip should prove ideal. Red Striker was also headed at the last when not beaten far at Tramore though that was over 2m. I Don't Get It is still only 1-36 despite having won at Downpatrick in June and found Listed company way beyond him at Galway last week.
