It's hardly surprising that ALLEGRA TAK was raised 12lb after her demolition job over the C&D three weeks ago and, though her recent improvement has come with plenty of give in the ground, she should be good enough to complete the double. Queenie Keen, Foot Perfect and Tell The Wind, who occupied the places, should get closer but the winner scored with plenty to spare and should confirm the form. Dotada found a mile much too far at Leopardstown on Thursday and is better judged on her run behind Jamsie over this trip at Fairyhouse a month ago when Sassaway was behind. Core Element found her rising handicap mark and 7f beyond her at Galway but she ran well enough and should be thereabouts.
