Jim Bolger won this last year and LEARGAS, who made a very good impression on testing ground at Cork on Sunday, will have learnt from the experience and dropping down in trip shouldn't prevent him going one better. Howdoyoufindthered also made a bright start at Naas where she was staying on nicely over the minimum trip. There's more to come from her though another furlong wouldn't go amiss. More Questions was behind her at Naas and looks held while Awakened Spirit was sent to Pontefract for his debut but proved very disappointing.
