Rummaging heads back to Dundalk on Wednesday to try to enhance his impressive record on the Polytrack, where he has won six times.

All of the Michael Halford-trained nine-year-old's victories at the track have been achieved over shorter distances, but he has won over a mile on turf and finished well over the trip at Limerick on his most recent start last month.

After two wins at the course in claimers, the Johnny Feane-trained Burn The Boats heads the weights for the 14-runner event, with 5lb claimer Oisin Orr on board.

Elusive Approach, who recorded back-to-back wins over the course in March and April, returns following two defeats on turf.


What they say

Adrian McGuinness, trainer of Rosenborg Rider
He ran very well over the course last time and we're expecting a big run from him. He's got plenty of weight but he's a big strong horse, so that shouldn't be an issue.

Michael Halford, trainer of Rummaging
He loves the place and has done very well there. He's dropped down the ratings and we think he'll be thereabouts. We were very pleased with his run at Limerick last time.

Garvan Donnelly, trainer of Carrigeen Prince
He's won a couple of times over the course and trip, so we know he handles the track. He has plenty of ability and we're hoping for a good run.
