Race preview
POUR THE WINE can register a first career success having run a big race when third at Killarney last time. Peter Fahey's mare was having just her fourth start in handicap company, when beaten a length by a horse who had plenty in hand of the assessor. Gaining in experience with every run, the likeable seven-year-old holds leading claims under Eamonn Fitzgerald. Walk Out, who was just a place behind in fourth at the County Kerry track, should again be involved. The Walk In The Park mare is also awaiting her first success but has been placed on a few occasions. Lizrona, a winner here over fences, has to be a contender now that she reverts to hurdling off an 11lb lower mark. She also arrives here in form after a runner-up finish at Roscommon last month.
