Treble Cone is all the rage for the first division of the Gerry Hughes Memorial Handicap at 5.25pm in Bellewstown.

The six-year-old gelding has a row of 'duck eggs' beside his name and has been dropped another 3lb by the handicapper. He trades around 7/2 from as big as 16/1.

He has two career victories over a mile in Cork last September and over the same trip at Leopardstown in May 2019.

Meanwhile, in the J H McLoughlin Oil Handicap at 6.55pm, bottom-weight Stanhope s price has shortened from 22/1 to 6/1.

He is a former Bellewstown winner.
