PREVIEW
This preview is for members only...
HARD GROUND only went down by three quarters of a length at the end of last season when a close second at Kinsale in June. It would not take much further improvement for him to get his head in front. All six of Colin McKeevers runners this season have finished in the first four, including Tardree who has the benefit of recent race fitness having finished second at Toomebridge on the opening day of the season, and that will certainly stand to him here. Meanwhile, Billy Kimber was unable to make much of an impact at Down Royal last Christmas, however he was previously sent off as a short-priced favourite for a four-year-old maiden, and may be one to keep an eye on.
