Nakassama was only beaten a neck in a Fairyhouse claimer but meets stronger opposition. Tommy Thug still showed signs of greenness when narrowly beaten at Leopardstown last week so should have come on plenty for the run. GOLDEN SPANGLE has now had a dozen starts and been placed in half of them. She's stepping up in trip and should be suited so gets the vote. Rhodesia has shown some potential and looks best of the remainder unless one of the newcomers attracts support.
