Race preview
There may be a bit more to come from GALLANT GEORGE in cheekpieces and on slightly better ground. The Order Of St George gelding didn't run too badly when fifth in a Navan maiden hurdle last month and looks to be on a fair mark for his handicap debut. His trainer Ian Donoghue also has Midleton Rare, a more experienced gelding who was a solid fourth at Downpatrick last time. Insouciant Dallier is another to consider.
