Verdict
Fridtjof Nansen went close at Galway and is preferred to Parkers Hill, third over 6f at Naas last month. Rugaday posted a better effort at Cork recently and may figure but NO PATIENCE has been competing in better company at Leopardstown and this drop in class could see him back to winning ways. Brosna Empress has been thereabouts at Dundalk and She's In The Game has placed on her last three outings while Hightown Heights makes her handicap debut for a new yard so is worth a market check.
