Second to a decisive winner over C&D two weeks ago; going the right way and a big player
5 (2)	Tam Lin Bay J:Colin Keane T:Daniel James Murphy	J:Colin Keane T:Daniel James Murphy	131	p	7845-5	58	68	58	29d	—	—	-13	8.2	0.83/1	10/3 23%

Visored for his handicap debut and no surprise should he be capable of much better

Travelled notably well and short of room when fourth here over 1m latest; contender

Ran like she needed it here last time and potentially interesting on her handicap debut
7 (7)	Clarabell Bay J:Danny Sheehy T:Adrian Sexton	J:Danny Sheehy T:Adrian Sexton	126	t	00-879	53	68	47	16d	—	—	0	1.1	20.00/1	80/1 1%
