Downpatrick 15:55 - Top 2 Finish

oddschecker Verdict

BUTCH COOLIDGE became the sixth winner out of the Bowe family's smart racemare Solerina when showing much improved form in a maiden at Tramore on his first run of the year. A first-time hood deemed to help and dropping back to this shorter trip isn't likely to be an inconvenience. Sea Of Doubt won a course and distance handicap on her first start for seven months and the bounce factor may have been at play when fifth here two weeks later. Blue Moon Boy disappointed at Tramore, but is better judged on his handicap debut second at Sligo.

Prediction: 1st Butch Coolidge, 2nd Sea Of Doubt, 3rd Blue Moon Boy
