FormscanBy John O'Riordan - Beaten less than a length when runner-up at Downpatrick last time, the John McConnell-trained DINOLAND can gain a deserved first victory under rules. Wearing blinkers for the first time, the gelding raced prominently throughout, keeping on strongly up the stiff hill. With connections opting to retain the headgear now, he should make another bold bid. Inchidaly Copper returns to the racecourse having landed a point-to-point at Dromahane last month. His 7lb conditional jockey is good value for that claim. Bearwithmenow, who ran well when fourth on his recent stable debut, should be all the better for that initial outing. He can get involved here under Jody McGarvey.
