Going - Good Good to Yielding in places.. Cloudy and breezy

Formscan By Mark Nunan - TRADONTHEBAY was second to a facile odds-on winner here a month ago, but his fifth at Ballinrobe last time is the run that makes him of interest on handicap debut. Having made a lot of the running, the Snow Sky gelding finished only 6l behind a fairly reliable 117-rated third, with a Grade 2 bumper winner between them. The handicapper elected not to take that form at face value, and Paul Gilligan’s runner can take advantage of his unchanged mark of 95. Wide-margin Downpatrick winner Joy Del Mar is now 10lb higher, while Lake Okeechobee showed notable improvement when fourth to Larkins Lane at Limerick and might fare best in the rematch. %0A
