Sign From Above is penalised for scoring on the Flat here and The Mediator for landing a bumper on the track. Both are respected while Samadabad did well to finish close in a big field at Navan on his hurdling debut but didn't make the expected progress at Cork. TOP SPEED was well supported at Clonmel last month after a promising run at Leopardstown but the heavy ground found him out in the closing stages after he led approaching the last. Today's conditions can see him gain compensation.
