Ger Lyons has won two of the last three renewals and a bold bid is expected from LANCASTRIA. He took a big step forward with last month’s second at Killarney to subsequent Listed-placed Eminent Authority and gets the vote. Macquarie also posted a better effort at Navan last time and the Ballydoyle colt is preferred to Down Royal runner-up Wildewood while Grinn steps up in trip for the Bolger yard having placed over a mile at Gowran. Switch Around and For Your Eyes have yet to threaten and Shane Foley rides the latter’s stablemate and newcomer Leo De Fury.
