FormscanBy Michael Graham - DONACHEADY GALE was an eye-catching winner on debut at Down Royal in June, by almost five lengths, and makes plenty of appeal in this winners' bumper. He won in the north at 25/1 but it certainly wasn't a surprise to his trainer, John Ryan, who was effusive in his praise of him. As he said himself "he could be anything". Bentham is more experienced with six runs, including two victories, under his belt. Gavin Cromwell has been quoted as saying he thinks he is a good horse. Unusually for a Jeremy, drying ground will be in his favour. Celine Soprano was beaten half a length into second by Bentham at Killarney and has to be respected with a 3lb swing in the weights. Charles Byrnes introduces One For Joe who is worth keeping an eye on in the market.
