PUT THE KETTLE ON is now unbeaten over fences and scored over timber at Downpatrick in June. She's improving at a rate of knots and will take all the beating judging on her latest victory at Tipperary. Westland Row will be conceding her 14lb, with jockey claims taken into consideration, but he looks a threat after an easy victory over Rebel Turn at Tramore was followed by a bad mistake at Killarney which put him out of contention. The Red Menace beat much better fancied rivals on his chasing debut at Downpatrick and he's no forlorn hope, though will need to make further progress, while Victoria Bay was only beaten narrowly over the track and trip in June and has her allowance to aid her cause.
