Formscan By John O'Riordan - DESERT FRIEND can add to his recent success at Sligo. A winner off higher marks in the past, the Pat Murphy-trained 10-year-old remains in this bottom grade despite an easy seven-length win last time. With Conor Cusack once again taking 7lb off his back, the veteran can follow up. Despite just the one win on the Flat, Mephisto has to be a strong contender under Colin Keane. A three-time scorer over hurdles last August, the grey looks very well treated off a mark of just 49 on the level. Lightly raced on the Flat, Sligo maiden hurdle winner Our Lucky Lady is another with every chance now that she reverts to this code.

Quotes on Desert Friend (IRE)
for whatever reason Desert Friend has become keen in his races. He's not bad at home and we are just trying to keep him settled. We changed his bit for his last run but he was keen again tonight. In fairness to Chris (Hayes), he held on to him although he is now giving more of a blow than the horse. I was wondering why he didn't ‘go’ at the two-furlong pole but he said afterwards that he needed a break!. Chris’ experience counted though, as he knew he would reap rewards at the end of the race. He said he pulled for 1m6f of the (two miles) race, so it was a great ride. Small fields and maybe a turning track (on turf), would suit so hopefully he will win another one.

Quotes on Mephisto (IRE)
The only thing I can think of is going up in trip. He ran over two-and-a-half at Sligo one day where he made a bad mistake and should have won. He works like a good horse at home and we always knew he kept a bit for himself on the Flat. His jumping was letting him down earlier on his career as well. He got a few terrible falls and I'd say he lost his confidence as well. We ran him in a few claimers and put him in for E8,000 and we just said if he goes, he goes. I kept telling the lads to get rid of him. He hadn't won since March of 2023 and I just told them to get something else. I knew he had ability and I said to bring him somewhere else either, to see would that work. Thank God neither of those options came to pass!. He is a lovely horse at home and any kid could ride him. He is just a pure rogue. He is handicapped over fences and can go back to Dundalk for those two-mile races as well. He won very easy today so maybe he will go to the next grade over hurdles. There is loads of options for him.

Quotes on Our Lucky Lady (IRE)
It wasn't ideal running her back just eight days after Thurles but these four-year-old fillies maidens are very scarce, so we said we'd have a go. We'd have been more confident if the rain didn't come but Cian was actually surprised how well she handled the ground because she's a very small, light filly. . She jumped very quick and the step up in trip seemed to suit her. She'll definitely have another run on this type of ground, and when it gets too soft we'll pull the plug on jumping until the spring. She had a very unlucky summer, with draws and getting boxed in, and I kept telling the lads to be patient, that she's a good filly. . I'd hope that we can improve her on the Flat as well and she might have a night in Dundalk.

Quotes on Bynx (IRE)
It looked like she ran flat the last day in Navan and has ran 18 times this year, so the brother said to me this morning 'what are you going to Thurles with her for!'. We had planned to give her a break, and only for it being so near on nice ground that we decided to take our chance. Maybe racing on the Flat is buzzing her. Sean said she was keen today but she has one thing - guts. She is tough out and when you have that you always have a chance. She goes up the gallop on her own and is a nut job at home. My young lad Jack is really training her as no one else wants the hardship of riding her. Jack is well able to ride but unfortunately is too tall to ride on the track.
