Strong Johnson has won three times around here but has only raced once beyond the minimum trip in 23 starts. POWER UNDER ME has been competing at Group level on this track this summer with a second place behind last weekend's Group 1 winner A Case Of You in a Group 3 the highlight. He wasn't at his best behind Art Power last month and the drop in class can see him back in the winner's enclosure. More Beautiful hasn't won since her two-year-old debut at Naas last summer but she's performed with credit at this level and can get involved. White Lavender just failed to catch Master Matt in a Tipperary Listed race over 5f and can't have been right when well beaten at Ayr when Teresa Mendoza ran a fine race to finish fourth.
