In depth
Verdict
A very low-grade handicap in which dual Polytrack winner ROCKVIEW ROMAN bids to record his first victory on Turf after several near misses. He's twice been beaten from this mark but meets moderate opposition. High Lake ran her best race to date on her handicap debut at Thurles though that was over 2m and she takes a big drop in trip. All The Mollies is on a long losing run though didn't get the run of the race here last time while Prime Chief will be better for last month's run here, his first since November. Martha's Vineyard looked a likely future winner when runner-up at Killarney but her saddle slipped next time.
