FormscanBy Eamonn Murphy - Trevena is just another of these horses beginning with Ciaran Murphy, on his assumption of the main role at Charlestown Stud in County Westmeath. Not much was set to change at the Mullingar operation, on the retirement of former licence holder Dot Love, and she’s still very much involved in a step-up that has its string in form. Of course Murphy put that all important first winner on the board with Enjoy D’allen at Fairyhouse on Saturday and that fellow carried the same silks as Trevena will. For a selection though, LOW LIE THE FIELDS is seen as progressive enough to deal with an eight pound higher mark for his Limerick win at Christmas. Another Greenmount Park victor, Itsnotit, is dangerous, even if he has to contend with an uplift of fourteen pounds. There are others in the mix with place chances as well.
