Has shown a consistent level of form in his last three starts, although has been well beaten at the finish after travelling well a couple of times now. Needs a bit more improvement against one or two that look more likely to go on from their debuts here.

Good debut run at Navan at the beginning of April when a staying-on third in a maiden hurdle, despite one or two sloppy jumps. Extra distance here looks a plus and if building on that effort, looks to hold a good chance.

Not beaten far at Kilbeggan last time, beaten less than two lengths in a bumper there, but not really progressing so far and that form needs improving on here. Needs to raise his game again.

15/8
Had clearly benefitted from the experience of her Navan debut in early April when taking a step forward from that and finishing a close fourth at Fairyhouse latest. Plenty of bumper winners in the family but may require a little further to show her best. Nevertheless, one of the more interesting ones.

Forecasts

Torrent Des Mottes (10/11), Frankiefiveangels (11/8), Penny Jane (15/8), Cluan Dara (7/2), Thinkinginmysleep (13/2), Doo Wakka Doo (16/1)

Verdict

A good little race to finish the card with, and there should be future winners coming from it. TORRENT DES MOTTES drifted like a barge in the betting before his debut but still performed with great credit, giving hope that he should come on plenty from that. Frankiefiveangels also did well on his debut and should have learnt plenty from it. He and Penny Jane can fight out the minor money.
