FormscanBy Michael Graham - NEWPORT kept on well for fourth at Wexford three weeks ago and, based on that improved effort, he ought to appreciate this extra yardage. Demanding Gerry couldn't land a glove on the winner at Downpatrick, but ran a fair race in second. That was a nice step forward and her stable has hit form. Jaadil was a somewhat remote second in Bellewstown, but the winner was well handicapped so there was merit in her performance. Thats All has a lowly rating, however, there was merit in her fourth place at Cork, while second-reserve Dee's Getaway would have better claims than most if getting a run.
