Northern Surprise has won four times around here, the last time from 8lb higher, though is on a long losing run. Loughanlea Lass is still a maiden but ran very well over the trip at Leopardstown last time in a race where MISS CUNNING won the opening division. The latter had won over 7f here previously and is on the upgrade while Irish Ambassador has run well here the last twice though has gone up in the weights without winning. Rain Or Shine completed a double when scoring over 7f here and her latest run at Leopardstown should be ignored as she got no sort of run. Fascinating Spirit was narrowly beaten over Cork's straight 7f last week but is 0-17 while Stellaire Enfant ran poorly at Leopardstown and looks a few pounds high.
