Benalex Park, from a very shrewd yard, was due to run here last night and attracted support during the day. Gordon Elliott won this a year ago and has two entered this time with the younger Snoqualmie Chief preferred to Luddsdenene, who disappointed at Downpatrick. LILLY THE LIONESS has been in excellent form all summer and the assessor may not have got her yet despite an 8lb rise for her close second in a stronger handicap at Galway. She's given the nod though the very consistent Res Ipsa Loquitur has been running so well that she will pose a threat. The Yellow Bin shouldn't be long losing his maiden tag after a cracking effort behind He Is Top Class at Sligo while No Cash Flow didn't jump well when strongly fancied at Tramore and can get involved with a better round.
