COOLFIGHTER bounced back in no uncertain terms at Tramore last week and with just a 4lb rise to contend with still looks on a very fair mark and can complete a quick double. Courtin Bb also won over this trip at that meeting and a 6lb rise shouldn't prevent another big effort though runner-up Fleurys Fort should get closer on the revised terms. All About Alfie showed his liking for better ground when battling to victory at Limerick and still looks on a fair mark but Tarazani has never been anywhere near this sort of trip.
