Verdict
John Ryan's good run of form may continue with RUN FOR THE BORDER, who can build on a pleasing return to action at Limerick in May. It's Time Again, who is noteworthy as a three-time course winner, signalled a return to form by running well up to the point of her exit at the second-last at Limerick last month. If fully fit after a long layoff, Tannery Park could go close. [Alan Sweetman]
