FormscanBy Mark Nunan - MEDIA NARANJA made the frame in two handicaps last month, including a 24-runner contest at the Punchestown festival, and there was little wrong with her latest run which saw her chase home a well-treated stablemate in a conditions event at Killarney. The daughter of Yeats can resume winning ways. Run For Harry has improved for better ground this spring and got off the mark at Kilbeggan last month. He was game in front on that occasion and can contend again off a 5lb higher mark. Useful Flat performer Phoenix Cowboy performed well over a furlong further on handicap debut at Limerick. The mare that beat him went close next time and a 3lb rise doesn't look harsh.%0A

Quotes on Dollar Value (USA)
Darragh (O'Keeffe, on Bold Emperor) knew my horse and I'd say he was just trying to take it off him down the back to see would it sicken him, but my fella just kept taking it out of him with his jumping. He's in a great vein of form at the moment. Keith is a great horseman and he jumped great for him again today. He'll be well up in the weights after this so we'll go for the Grade 2 at Gowran Park in early October. He's match fit and some horses in that will be coming back from a break. We have to have a go at something like that at this stage. Then the plan is to go to the November meeting in Cheltenham and we'll be leaving him off for the year after that.

Quotes on Name Me Famous (IRE)
for a horse that can jump well, he made a lot of mistakes - whether it was down to the ground, or the speed they were going, I'm not sure. He is awful tough and genuine though. Jumping was never an issue until today - he was very good at Limerick the last day so we will give him the benefit of the doubt. He'll continue in summer chases now and I'm delighted for Denis (Enright, from Ballylongford) who is a good supporter of the yard. Denis has had two horses with me and both has won three races each.

Quotes on Only One Plan (IRE)
The horse deserved it and the owner deserves it as well. Last year he ran well in a hurdle or two and picked up a little injury. It was slow coming back and he's been placed a good few times without winning. It was lovely to have James on him as well as he was out with injury and it's his first winner for me since he came back, he has had one or two other winners. Michael Cawe had a horse with me seven or eight years ago called Imperial Joey, that won a race for me, and I hadn't had a horse for him since until I got this lad so it's lovely to have another winner for him. Michael is from Ballinrobe so we'll see if there is a hurdle up there for him a little bit later in the year. It would be nice to get him close to home for him.
