Race preview
Liz Doyle had a double here last week when Yabo and Blaze A Trail obliged. The local handler could strike in this two and a half miler too as her Fame And Glory mare SILK WORM would appear to have as good a chance as any. In truth supporters of the five-year-old are likely dependent on a first-time tongue-strap making a difference as the Tramore bumper winner was a disappointing favourite when third at Ballinrobe last time. Not too many of these have managed a win in the past, so those that have, namely Ourauldman, Pat Coyne, Pat's Pearl and Peculiar Genius are respected. Beaten favourite when second over this track and trip seven day ago, Rebel Waltz is another to consider.
