Formscan By Gary Carson - A step up in trip now could suit ORLANDO SPIRIT after he plugged on to finish third at Cork last time. The French-bred gelding finished off well when narrowly denied at Thurles on his penultimate start and was also doing his best work late on last time after the front two skipped clear of the field. Mickey Hulie has also been placed on his last two outings and he drops in trip now. With cheekpieces tried for the first time he could be a danger. Rebel Cowgirl got an 8lb rise for her success at Punchestown last time and has to be respected. She beat Poets Oath then, who went on to win the Cork race in which the selection was third.

Quotes on Minority Interest (IRE)

That makes it a better day because it was horrendous until then!. I came in and an umbrella left the bookies and missed my head by an inch. I said ‘this is going to be a good day’ because it should have clocked me. Then one fell in the first, one got brought down in the third and then a horse, Quarry Rocco, slipped in the stable and was lame behind and I couldn’t run him. I was saying ‘what have I done wrong?’. That’s brilliant. The lads (Cluain Abhann Racing Syndicate) are great. The horse has been very solid. He ran a good race in Kilbeggan over a year ago but got an injury and we nursed him back. He ran a great race the last day and was super today. He had a lovely racing weight and handled a bit of an ease. We never got to run him on softer because he got an injury in the summer and then we brought him back again this summer. This is his first time that he’s got to run with an ease. I said to the lads that I thought he would appreciate it but I couldn’t be sure. He obviously did.

Quotes on The Little Yank (IRE)

It is great for John Aherne, and The Little Yank is a bit of a legend. He got a very bad fall one year at Listowel which ruined him, but he appears to be coming back to his best and is well handicapped if he does so. He won two bumpers, was a proper horse and Fr Shane Casey (part-owner) loves running him and my daughter Gillian is the horse's other owner. He has come back down to a winnable mark recently and we're looking forward to the summer now. He beat Ash Tree Meadow (Galway Plate winner) by nine lengths once, is a proper little horse, and not too many win over €180,000 in prize money like him.

Quotes on Rebel Cowgirl (IRE)

. Two-and-a-half, going a right good gallop, is probably ideal for her. We held her up a bit the last day over two-miles-seven in Thurles and it didn’t work out for us. We decided to go back and make the running today and keep kicking. In fairness Cian gave her a great ride and she didn’t miss a trick. We’re delighted and we’ll try and get something similar in three or four weeks time. She’ll be a nice mare over a fence next year. She’s a well-bred mare, she’s out of a half-sister to Appreciate It.
