Off 6 months, pulled up in handicap chase at Navan (17f, soft) 10 days ago. Needs to have come on a lot in a short time.

Form: 814F45

Don't Talk^t⁶⁶

Age: 8| Weight: 11-2| J: Donagh Meyler| T: K Thornton| OR: 110| D

3/1

On a hat-trick after wins in quick succession at Down Royal (20.5f) and Fairyhouse (17f) in January. A further 7 lb rise shouldn't prevent him making a bold bid for the hat-trick.

Forecasts

Mount Frisco (11/4), Drumgill (3/1), Don't Talk (3/1), American Money (10/3), General Clermont (9/2), Battle Of Ridgeway (15/2), Itsalonglongroad (10/1), Carlas Big Jim (10/1), Willywampus (11/1)

DRUMGILL acquitted himself well in a Grade 3 novice at Thurles last time and might be able to outclass this opposition with his sights lowered. The hat-trick seeking Don't Talk rates the chief danger ahead of American Money, who has placed over hurdles in recent months.
