Matthew Smith ended Galway on a high and has three entries. Fulysse hasn't run since landing a Fairyhouse handicap in November but the lack of an outing shouldn't be a problem. Yulong Voice had The Big Chap just over two lengths behind when scoring at Limerick and though the latter will b 6lb better off the places can remain the same. Sargent Lightfoot finally came good at Kilbeggan for which he's been hit with an 8lb rise but the vote goes to TEMPTATIONINMILAN, who wasn't beaten far behind the gambled-on Petrol Head over a trip too short at Roscommon. Wild Caprice showed improved form last time though that was over fences.
