Verdict

Aimhirgin Lass scored on soft ground at Killarney last July and though she hasn't recaptured that sort of form she ran better than her finishing positions suggest at the Curragh last month. Multiculture was staying on at the finish over this trip at Wexford so it's a surprise to see him dropped 2lb in the ratings. David Marnane runs both Settle For Red and Maskoon with preference for the former, who had been in good form at Dundalk before returning to Turf with a decent effort at Naas. KNOCKMAOLE BOY (NAP) has only had six starts and looks ready to lose his maiden tag. He probably found the ground a bit too quick at Gowran last time but still ran well enough to be handed the vote as his form on ground with some give should be good enough.
