FormscanBy Michael Graham - STEPS IN THE SAND won over CD in July and has to be respected with that form franked. In all probability, the longer distance probably found her out when she was fourth on her latest visit to Downpatrick. British-raider Mary looks set to go off at the front and those tactics worked well in Stratford last month. Her trainer, Ian Williams, enjoyed a successful raid at Laytown on Tuesday. Bayou Belle is in a consistent vein of form and has been placed in her last four races over flights including at this venue in January. She is another threat.
An extended handicap hurdle for four years old and upwards rated 80-109
Penalties - Winner of a hurdle race after calculation of the handicap shall carry 7lb extra for each hurdle race won.

Quotes on Steps In The Sand (IRE)
I thought if she handled the track the hill finish would play to her strengths. She's a strong finisher. Very versatile, Flat or jumps. She tries which is a big thing with a horse. When you have a horse that tries, you have a big chance with one. Good ground and the stiff finish definitely helped as well. I think over further she will be better again. She'll get a rest now after that. I have five or six in Killarney this week - a few nice ones hopefully. When they are running well, we will keep them going and hopefully get another winner or two out of it.

Quotes on Only One Plan (IRE)
The horse deserved it and the owner deserves it as well. Last year he ran well in a hurdle or two and picked up a little injury. It was slow coming back and he's been placed a good few times without winning. It was lovely to have James on him as well as he was out with injury and it's his first winner for me since he came back, he has had one or two other winners. Michael Cawe had a horse with me seven or eight years ago called Imperial Joey, that won a race for me, and I hadn't had a horse for him since until I got this lad so it's lovely to have another winner for him. Michael is from Ballinrobe so we'll see if there is a hurdle up there for him a little bit later in the year. It would be nice to get him close to home for him.
