Mullaghmore Wave was very impressive here last month but took a 14lb rise into the 3.15 at Downpatrick yesterday. ICEE M B A has been in cracking form, scoring at Downpatrick in June and over fences at Roscommon last week, and is still looking on a very fair mark. Arizona Flyer has really found his form since stepping up to this sort of trip and had plenty in hand when completing a double at Downpatrick so an 8lb rise is unlikely to prevent another big effort. An Droichead Eile followed his victory at Navan with a fine run over fences at Tipperary so is another to consider in an open contest, as is the progressive course winner Jubatus. Nasee was engaged in the 4.20 at Downpatrick yesterday.
