INISHMOT PRINCE wasn't seen to best effectr when bidding for a Dundalk hat-trick and can show he's still on a favourable mark now switching back to the turf. Cailin Cliste has the potential for better again on the back of her winning start for this yard over C&D 3 weeks ago and heads the many dangers along with Midnight Fire and the Colin Keane-ridden Secret Road.
