ROCKVIEW DIAMOND is hard to oppose. He's done nothing wrong in finishing runner-up on his last three starts and should have the beating of these fillies. John McConnell's charge has already beaten El McGlynn at Cork last time and the latter had Seastar Island and Chocolate Hills behind before that, but Bahama Spirit could prove a bigger threat as she's expected to improve on her debut third at Leopardstown. She's My Dandy has plenty to find and the newcomers make no appeal.
