In depth
Verdict
ISOBELLA BLUE had shown virtually nothing until a much improved run over 2m2f at Downpatrick. She loves this quick ground and a 2lb rise doesn't look enough to prevent her going one better for her new yard. Slaney Time ran well behind Van Wyck at Killarney but the fact that he's had 33 career starts without winning hardly inspires confidence. Wings From Heaven is very lightly-raced for his age and showed some improvement at Cork last time but Beliar, who has been in good form on the Flat, reverted to type and ran poorly over timber at Roscommon.
