Takeachancejimmy won this in 2020 and Loingseoir was successful a year ago. Michael Mulvany is double-handed with six-times Flat winner In From The Cold and The Blue Panther, who has bounced back to form after a lean spell. Coeur d'Or lost his maiden tag on the beach at Laytown and though raised 6lb Dermot Weld has booked a 7lb claimer. SAN AER could be good enough as he was the easy winner of a minor handicap here and wasn't beaten far in a better race on a return visit but Dragon Of Malta is 11lb higher than his last victory over a year ago. Knocknakilla continues to frustrate having finished close up on numerous occasions without winning and Redstone Well will find this tougher than the maiden he won at Cork.
