Race preview
Inishtearaght ran well for a long way at Killarney on his debut before weakening late on and coming home fifth, and with nominal improvement he ought to be a player in this line-up. Appy Ways looks the part on pedigree as a daughter of Blue Bresil and half-sister to bumper winner Appy Getaway, but a chance is taken on CONFIDENCE WITHIN. Owned and trained by Philip Rothwell, he finished a close-up third in his point-to-point at Ballindenisk and is bred to have the speed needed for this distance.
