Race preview
BLACK HAWK EAGLE will be difficult to beat having gone close at Gowran Park on Wednesday. On an evening when it was very difficult to come from off the pace the Noel Meade trained four-year-old stayed on strongly only to find the post coming too soon. He looks a winner without a penalty and has the services of the excellent Jack Kearney. Fox Fearless drops back in trip having won at Bellewstown recently but isn't short of pace and has one of the more experienced jockeys on board. Similar comments apply to Pretty Little Liar both in relation to trip and rider. Freepark was runner-up over 9f here on his penultimate start and may just have found the heavy ground against him at Tipperary last time out.
