Verdict
Colms Dream and Gold Class fought out the finish at Clonmel last week with the former just prevailing. But both had a hard race and REALDEALHOLYFIELD (NAP) can take advantage. The latter finished a close-up fourth at Tramore last time when eight lengths clear of the rest and should prove good enough in this. Key Account has lost his way since winning at Clonmel last month but May Dullea has a shout off her current mark on last year's placed efforts. Ram Them All is returning from an absence and may be best watched on this occasion.
