New York City easily lands the odds
Tai Sing Yeh brings up century of winners for Levins
Dundalk is a very fast five with a bend and if they handle that, normally they’ll handle (five furlongs) at a track like Navan with an uphill finish. I was surprised that he was able to dictate away in front. They might have left him alone and Donagh might have been able to do his own fractions and that kind of helped him. He quickened just before the hill and made it into some sort of a stamina test. I would say the blinkers helped him, and the run up at Dundalk on Friday sharpened him up. He’s an old horse and the blinkers are on to try and keep him sharp and active over this shorter trip

Well-supported Dartan scores for Smith & McDonogh
Declan said that is as short as you would want to be going with him - he was only getting going in the last 100 yards. Declan liked him. He has a great attitude, he just switches off and relaxes. He can be a bit slowly away so probably two miles would suit him and he can just take his time. I'm delighted with that. Declan said he thinks he would be good enough for some of those better staying handicaps. He's a nice horse to have and I'm delighted for the lads as well.

Supagirl outstays rivals under Foley
She was probably crying out for it (trip) last year. She stayed well and he (Shane Foley) said she wasn't doing anything, ears pricked all the way up the straight. When pressed, she had plenty in there. Shane was happy with her.
