This doesn't have the strength in depth of the first division and it offers DANCING LORD a good opportunity to score again. He's been running well all summer and with Gary Halpin claiming a valuable 7lb he looks the one to be on. Hazel Blue went up 7lb for her course and distance victory and couldn't cope at Killarney but Kieran Cotter's lightly-raced filly can make her presence felt. However, she was only just in front of Delta Beat in that latter event and Denis Hogan's charge, who was making his handicap debut, is the type to do better, especially with his yard firing in the winners. Top weight shouldn't be too much of a burden to Cash Or Casualty, who has won four times here and ran well at the Curragh last time after winning here.
