Verdict

Winning point-to-pointer NOW I WIN AGAIN hails from a yard who do well here and her second to Milan Bound at Fairyhouse looks strong enough form for this. Lots Of Memories has come up against some tough opposition and didn't quite last home over 2m3f at Naas last time. Shemshal looked in need of his debut run but showed plenty of promise and as a son of Dalakhani out of a Listed winner on the Flat he should improve with racing. Big Vincey, who won a point at Tyrella last month, may prove best of the rest though the market is best watched for clues.
