Paddy Twomey won the first running of this last year and Bua is expected to come on a bundle for her run at Dundalk nine days ago where she started favourite despite looking in need of experience. The well-connected Cyclamen has shown ability but has generally been disappointing as she was at Gowran last time. Lizzy's Filly has been narrowly beaten in two of her last three but VADIANA looks the one to beat. Tracey Collins' filly followed a very promising debut at Gowran with a narrow defeat at Bellewstown where she finished strongly over that extended 7f despite losing a shoe.
