It's difficult to get away from the chances of the Mick Winters-trained, CREASTED COURT following a couple of solid runs at Wexford and Tramore recently. The six-year-old can improve for first-time blinkers and hold off the attentions of Mr Moondance, who returned to hurdling recently, Mighty Whitey, one of three in the contest for trainer Noel Kelly and Santa Anna who will possibly continue her development in this company.
