The drop back to 6f didn't work for SILVER LIGHTENING at Naas last time so he's back over a mile for this. Kevin Prendergast's charge has yet to match his debut second over today's trip at the Curragh but is the one to beat today if doing so. Military Device and Conversational are others having difficulty breaking their ducks and Minister Of Mayhem makes more appeal back down in trip. Charlotte Rua disappointed on fast ground last time but Banker Burke improved to finish third at Limerick and looks a threat.
