Race preview
YOUR HONOR got a good positive ride from Mikey Sheehy when beating solid yardstick Butterfly Garden over 1m2f at Sligo. He's up 7lb but wants this trip, and further in time, and can go in again. Our Scholar landed a gamble when touching off Butterfly Garden at Navan on Thursday. Dropping back in trip from 1m6f shouldn't be an issue but, using Kevin Prendergast's filly as a form guide, he'll struggle to concede 11lb to the selection. Theonewedreamof was a fast-finishing second on handicap debut at Gowran and met trouble in running early on at Naas last time. She's had a little break, represents a stable in form and is interesting up in trip. Portville stayed at it well when fourth at Dundalk and has place claims over this extra furlong.
