This could be a question of whether the assessor has got to Ringside Humour, who was scoring for the third time this year when beating three rivals at Gowran. She didn't get the best of runs when almost five lengths behind DUCA VALENTINOIS over the track and trip last month and can get closer but the winner is definitely on the upgrade and can confirm the form and take this with just a 4lb rise to contend with. King Of Aragon was a long way behind in that latter event and it's difficult to see a form reversal while Shannon Soul, who finished fifth, may need more experience and sixth-placed Xebec had no answer when passed after attempting to lead all. Plus Ca Change has been very highly tried since her Dundalk maiden victory and should be capable of making her mark in this company.
