Treasure can bury rivals over longer trip

TREASURE MAP is the nap choice in the Kavanaghs' Bar Claremorris Race at Ballinrobe this afternoon.

Dermot Weld's colt showed only a little on his debut at Galway, but stepped well up on that effort at Gowran Park next time.

The son of Theatrical beat Aidan O'Brien's newcomer Mount Nelson a length with odds-on favourite, Mamlook, a further four and a half lengths away in third. Treasure Map impressed with the manner in which he stuck to his task in the closing stages. He tackles another two furlongs in trip now, which should certainly suit, and the fact the ground was very testing at Gowran augurs well for his prospects.
