In depth

Verdict

Shes No Joke was disqualified after finishing third at Leopardstown when her rider weighed in light. She should make a bold bid while Ruler Of France should be winning again soon though a few pounds off his mark wouldn't come amiss. Equation Of Time has dropped to a mark he should be capable of winning from though he's never scored beyond a mile. ELUSIVE IN PARIS has a very similar profile though he looks more likely to stay this trip in a small field and gets the nod with Donnacha O'Brien's claim a bonus. None of the remainder can be dismissed in a tight looking handicap.
