Verdict
Ballinrobe winner BLESS N'JECT didn't do himself justice over a longer trip at Limerick last time but has an opportunity to make amends here and is preferred to Killarney winner Dingaling. Incas Article won comfortably on her debut at Clonmel but it wasn't a particularly fast time and she has more on her plate here. Donatis Comet must also improve on his win at Down Royal to follow up in this, but still looks a better bet than any of the others.
