Pass Hymn was raised 7lb for winning narrowly at Bellewstown and that may foil a double. Room To Roam was beaten when unseating his rider at the last at Killarney in a race in which Mr Picotee finished second but the latter has been rather harshly raised 2lb since. Give Battle has been knocking on the door but has never won in 19 starts. CATS FOR CASH (NAP) is another still chasing a first victory but caught the eye at Galway a week ago having finish a close second in a maiden at Ballinrobe earlier – he has the ability to win a race like this off his current mark.
