Thurles Preview:The Harry Rogers-Willie Supple team got the new flat season off to a 20 to 1 flier with Fit The Cove at the Curragh on Sunday and Our Jaffa can keep the ball rolling at today's mixed card at Thurles.
Our Jaffa, runner-up to Bawaader in last year's Irish Lincolnshire, missed Sunday's renewal of that big race but gets a mile and her favoured testing conditions today in the Nenagh Handicap.
The Rogers stable endured a frustrating 2006 on the flat but appear to be in form for this campaign and Our Jaffa has been dropped 4lbs since her last start on the level.
Dusty Doolan exited at the sixth fence on his last start but Barry Geraghty is on board today in the second division of the Cashel Beginners Chase and Colm Murphy's horse looks to be worth another chance.
Tony Martin's Akshar looks one to examine closely in the Templemore Beginners Chase although he hasn't run since finishing third to Alexander Taipan at Fairyhouse in January.
Tamimi's History came up against some of the best of Ballydoyle last year when placed behind both Mount Nelson and Archipenko. Kevin Prendergast's horse has his chance in the mile maiden.
