THE BOG BANK has won twice around here and started favourite for the race a year ago when she didn't get the run of the race. Regular rider James Ryan again takes the mount and he can steer her to another success. Smaoineamh Sile hasn't won since last summer but is gradually dropping to a winnable mark and showed much more dash at Leopardstown last time. Barnhill Rose has looked a few pounds high since scoring at Roscommon but nine-times winner Sunset Nova can pop up at any time though he's held by the selection on latest running at Dundalk.
