Having finally lost his all-weather maiden tag over 2m here last month Danequest scored over the same trip at Clonmel last week but has been hit with another 5lb rise. Sea's Aria, who started favourite in that latter event, had every chance and could only stay on at one pace. TORTUEUSE (NAP) gained her first all-weather victory over the track and trip in December and made a bold bid to defy a 4lb rise a couple of weeks later. She still looks on a fair mark and can return to winning ways. Trans City has performed very well on his last two starts but is still a maiden after 23 runs on the all-weather. The lightly-raced Jessamine takes a big step-up in trip after a close fifth over a mile here last month. Brokopondo, placed twice behind Temasek Star here in February, wasn't suited by dropping back in trip a few days later and has to be on the shortlist but Abrahams Blessing has been narrowly beaten on a couple of occasions here but has never won a race.
