In depth
Verdict
Silverkode has gained all of his three victories around here and is now on his lowest-ever mark while Coins Cross didn't get the best of runs at Gowran after landing a Sligo maiden. Dermot Weld has booked Sam Ewing for Cork premier handicap winner Hightimeyouwon while Punk Poet had a bit in hand over Mudawy at Limerick so a 4lb rise looks manageable. SWISS ACE didn't get the clearest of runs at Fairyhouse and has been dropped a couple of pounds which might just be enough to get him back on the winning trail. Ice Cold In Alex ran on very strongly at Leopardstown but has been beaten five times from a lower mark this season. Acquiescent, caught on the line at Gowran, is 1lb higher but has Siobhan Rutledge's claim to aid her cause.
