Paul Carberry rode Rocky Wednesday to victory in this a year ago and is back on board. His mount has been contesting decent contests though it's difficult to see him turn round a beating of 32 lengths by GETOUTWHENYOUCAN at Naas at a difference of just 5lb. The latter is enjoying a superb run on testing ground and completed a four-timer in comfortable style at Limerick and can continue his winning ways. Aerlite Supreme was a surprise winner of a maiden at Limerick last month and it could be he's starting to fulfill his potential at last, though it could be Noble Inn who causes the selection most problems. The four-year-old had looked a nice prospect before taking on strong company in the Fred Winter at Cheltenham where he didn't get the best of runs. Another of the same age, Orgilgo Bay, finished an excellent third in that event at the Festival and with more progress expected can go close.
