Gowran Park Race 5 - Sis Mdn
BIG CYPRESS (2) has been gelded since finishing fifth at Fairyhouse during June and now off the break and into an easier race he should be seen to his very best. SHEREKIYA (12) goes up in trip after disappointing at Cork two weeks ago. Will need to leave that run well behind. Respect. SUIR MONAD (9) is still a maiden after four starts. Went well at Galway past two outings. Holds strong claims providing there is market support. RYEFIELD DASHER (6) extended the losing streak at Roscommon last time though that was a personal best. Dropping in trip and should prove a player tackling a realistic contest.

Lining up for just third start. At very big odds at debut, ran last of 13 at Cork on July 24 over 1207m, 20 len behind Finika with 61kg at $67. Last start 8th of 15 at Bellewstown on August 25 over 1609m, 21 len behind Camino Lad carrying 61kg at $251. Doesn't appeal.
