In depth

Verdict

Lisa O'Neill has won this twice in recent years so her presence on Johnny Murtagh's Dalileo, three-times a winner in the UK, is noted. Laura Hourigan won the race on a 50/1 chance last year but WAJAAHA won't be anything like that price after a convincing victory at Limerick. He's been raised 12lb but that was only his third run on the Flat and he can go in again. Tonkinese is the only course and distance winner in the line-up having won here last month so he's respected, despite a 7lb rise, while Walking On Glass will get a good ride from Aine O'Connor and had plenty in hand over Princess Zoe at Navan. Nikita Kane had a winner at Bellewstown a fortnight ago and Rocky Blue would take some beating having won easily at Leopardstown on Thursday though, unless there's a change of heart, he's unlikely to take his place.
