Verdict

The returning Shesadream won this last year and stablemate Media Naranja scored at Ballinrobe earlier in the week. But both have something to find on these terms with FINEST EVERMORE, who has been difficult to keep right but won a handicap at Killarney when last in action. Lady Of The Vale landed a maiden hurdle at Tipperary recently while Cash The Cheque placed in maiden company at Limerick.
