Verdict

Rubiana won this easily last year and is still 5lb higher despite moderate subsequent form. Court Adjourned doesn't win very often but stays the trip well and looked in good form behind Father Jed at Sligo last month. Carnet De Stage is still a maiden and has been beaten five times off this mark this season while Ballinasilla was beaten a long way behind Glenquin Castle at Wexford having finished a close second to that winner at Kilbeggan. GARRAI PHAIDIN was five lengths behind in that latter race but was having his first start for almost a year. He then ran very well at Galway before disappointing at Ballinrobe but gets the nod to bounce back in an ordinary handicap.
