Race Tip

The unexposed MADARA (9) improved sharply from his return effort when an eye-catching second in a 2m4 1/2f handicap chase at Kempton. Progress is evident and holds leading claims with cheekpieces refitted. MCLAUREY (17) produced a better showing running fourth at Down Royal over 2m1/2f defeated 6L after a Naas disappointment. Must be considered representing the yard who won this in 2021. WILL THE WISE (12) seeks improvement on a tenth among Listed company at Leopardstown in December. Better than that effort and can progress with a tongue-tie applied. DOWN MEMORY LANE (2) boasts a highly creditable fresh record and cannot be discounted carrying the same colours as last year's winner.
