BIPASHA appeared to find the 5lbs rise for scoring at Leopardstown too much to handle when beaten at Galway but she looks better than that and it would be no surprise to see her bounce back and take this. She holds Cristal Island on the Leopardstown run while Gracchus has the edge over Cinnin Oir on his victory at Leopardstown in July and can go well. Ultra Cool only began racing in June and she's had several runs in quick succession but must be considered on her victory over Foxilian at Roscommon. The C&D winner Badger Or Bust is another contender with his young rider using his claim.
