Asymmetrical was making her handicap debut when well supported at Roscommon and though beaten she was staying on nicely over the minimum trip so this should prove ideal. Major Harry dropped back to two miles to gain his first success at Ballinrobe and may be best suited by that trip while Young Milly, who has been chasing, was battling on when tackling 2m4f here last time and may find this on the short side. The handicapper has raised EVER DREAMING 5lb for her battling victory over Young Patriarch at Balllinrobe which is fair enough and she should be good enough to score from her new mark.
