Another puzzle for punters. Solo Performer is on his highest ever mark after being raised 9lbs for an easy victory over tonight's rival Luttrell Lady at Down Royal. Livaleo is running well and should be thereabouts after another fine effort at Navan where he was touched off by Mianach, who runs earlier. Lady Songbird was battling on at the finish when runner-up over 1m1f at Ballinrobe on Tuesday and will be suited by the extra furlong while Sandymount Lady wasn't at her best behind Shareen on her hat-trick bid at Leopardstown and is still on a reasonable mark. Lac A Dancer is still a maiden but ran a fine race behind Desert Romance at Naas on Wednesday and is at the right end of the handicap as is ARTICILITIS, who gets the vote as she bounced back to form behind Laughing Boy at Fairyhouse earlier this month and was at her best at this time a year ago when scoring three times.
