TIPPERARY MOON completed a Dundalk double in the spring before beaten a head at Cork and a nose over a mile at Limerick here he was headed on the post. He's only 1lb higher and Colin Keane can steer him home again. Colonel Slade led for a long way over the same track and trip and only weakened inside the final furlong so should be suited by the drop in trip. Hidden Spark has won twice over a mile under today's rider since moving yards and the assessor hasn't been tough on her but Alice Milligan is still a maiden after 24 starts. Slade Runner was placed for the first time on Turf on his 13th start at Down Royal and Sam Ewing's claim is a plus but Scream has been raised 9lb for a shock victory at Cork.
