Solid and consistent on the AW at Dundalk over the years and proved the flame still burned on return to the track following a long lay-off last month finishing second of 10 before finishing runner up behind Sheisdiesel last night. Strong claims.
62-rated handicapper for Michael Dods and the former Ralph Beckett charge looked well below-par on return to the track in March. First time blinkers unlikely to bring about the required improvement.
16-race maiden looked out of sorts on his last start and eased when beaten in a Navan handicap last month. Others look to be progressing at a quicker rate.
Mare who now drops back in to the 30's following a number of ineffective displays since the turn of the year and looks up against it here.
Forecasts
Elusive In Paris (15/8), Muzbid (9/4), Trade Marked (7/1), Steelyeyed (8/1), Match My Fire (8/1), Torthai An Ghra (11/1), Lambikin (25/1), Stadius (40/1)
The solid and consistent ELUSIVE IN PARIS will look to transfer his AW form to the turf here following a fine return to the track last month following a 341 day lay-off and finishing second of 10 at Dundalk on Wednesday (2nd May). Muzbid on stable debut, won one of his three runs on the Flat at Killarney in May over 1m for trainer-Denis Hogan would not have to improve much to land a blow here.
