Romany Brown (IRE)

Has run well in two starts this winter and performed with credit when narrowly defeated - conceding weight, at Clonmel in November. He should win a similar race soon.

Carrigans Grove (IRE)

A speedily bred half-sister to four winners, she showed promise on handicap debut at Dundalk on November 1 and looks likely to better her current rating.

I Am Lorenzo (IRE)

Has shown promise on his initial two starts todate and while well enough held by the winner at Galway in late October, should win an upcoming maiden hurdle.

Size Five (IRE)

Returned following a year off to win eased-down by 20 lengths at Perth in September and having followed up at Limerick subsequently, he looks likely to continue to defy the handicapper.

Feud (GB)

A half-brother to 1,000 Guineas winner Fallen Angel, he won easily on his hurdling debut at Listowel and should be followed over the coming months.
