Irish Lincolnshire hero On The Go Again makes a swift reappearance for the Cork Handicap on Saturday.
Michael Mulvany 's stable star completed a Flat four-timer when justifying strong market support in the big Naas handicap, and has risen to a mark of 101 as a result. Aussie Valentine was third last weekend and is 8lb better off with On The Go Again for four lengths so could make things interesting. Rickrack lacks the recent match practice of the big two but she developed into a progressive filly last term and should improve again this campaign.
Joseph O'Brien is responsible for two of the three contenders for the www.corkracecourse.ie Race, with his Classic-engaged Navan winner Escamillo joined by stablemate Ship Of Dreams who was last of six in the Dundalk heat won by Mendelssohn.
They are taken on by the Dermot Weld-trained Imaging and he couldn't have been more impressive in destroying his Limerick opponents in heavy ground back in the autumn. Shareva s Gowran third on her sole juvenile appearance will have given Weld plenty of encouragement and she returns to action in the Like Us On Facebook Fillies Maiden.
However, in Shapes she faces a rival who was third to the high-class Alpha Centauri twice in 2017, most recently in Listed company. Stoic Soul chased Escamillo home, albeit at a respectable distance, on debut and he could advertise the form when he goes to post for the Irish Stallion Farms EBF Median Auction Maiden. King Of Leinster attempts to confirm the promise of his introductory second at the Listowel Festival in the Ticket Sales Online At corkracecourse.ie Maiden. Rince Deireanach ended last season with a Fairyhouse triumph and bids to pick up where she left off in the Mallow Handicap, while Decision Time is worth noting back on the level in the Follow Us On Twitter Apprentice Handicap.
