Verdict
LOTS OF MEMORIES has been a bit unfortunate to come up against useful rivals and ran really well behind the heavily supported Caesar Milan at Down Royal on Boxing Day. He'd be unlucky to come up against one as good and is given the vote though Super Mix and Wedding Present are potentially decent performers. The former made a promising debut behind Kick On Boss at Gowran with the remainder well beaten while Sean O'Brien's charge found 2m4f at Leopardstown just too far and was caught close home by Mullaghanoe River. Giantofaman finished close up in that latter event and along with Whinstone Dee should be considered in what looks an open bumper.
