Verdict

Rajsalad was engaged in the 4.15 at Fairyhouse yesterday. Martha Divine stepped up to 2m6f to land a maiden at Punchestown and a mark of 116 looks manageable. Wild Hunt is progressing though has another 3lb to carry after failing to complete a hat-trick over 3m here last month. The latter's yard also run Ballyadam Destiny, a winner at Thurles before finding quicker ground against him at Limerick. Caesar Rock stepped up on previous form when scoring at Wexford but a chance is taken on the fitness of ONE FOR JOE. Charles Byrnes' charge won a Killarney maiden on good ground last summer and, though not seen since August, the lack of a run is rarely a problem for one from his yard. Thedancingfarrier has gained both victories to date on this track.
