TRM Race, Replace, Rehydrate Rated Race

1m1f maiden winner on soft to heavy at the Curragh and placed horses both won next time out; Keane thought he could go back in trip, trainer thinks he'll get this far.

Won at 22-1 over 1m on AW; pedigree suggests he's almost certain to improve for this trip, his brother a French 10.5f winner, dam a Listed winner over 1m7f and stayed even farther.

Landed 1m Gowran maiden on heavy in October, her yard's last winner but a few have run well lately; dead in the market and ran accordingly on return over this trip at Leopardstown, long way behind Pierre Grosse.

Consistent in defeat over 7f/1m before narrowly getting the better of a debuting stablemate over 1m at Gowran, finding plenty off the bridle for McDonogh who said post-race that the gelding might like 10 furlongs.

Quietly fancied and seemed to improve for this trip when placed in Leopardstown handicap on his return, and that can be marked up because he was on the slower ground up the straight; most of the Harrington string are coming on for their first runs, too, so lots to like.
