Having run a sound race in a big-field Galway event off this mark at the start of the month over timber, NA TRACHTALAI ABU since shaped very well over fences from a much higher mark at Tramore and, with a repeat of that effort, should go close this evening. Major Destination was a promising third in a handicap at Ballybrit this month and has to be high on any shortlist racing from a 2lb higher perch now. Carrigready can threaten if in the mood while top-weight Dorans Pride and Batchelors Walk aren't to be dismissed.
