Skontonovski was having his 15th start when getting off the mark at Cork and has been hit with a 9lb rise. Boasty, a winner at Kempton in October, was well supported here in July and had every chance but didn't go through with his effort. Burning Lake is now 7lb higher than when successful here in April so a chance is taken on PRIDE OF PIMLICO defying a wide draw. He was in stall 13 when coming with a late run to snatch the spoils here last time - he is out wider this time but only 5lb higher. The Bog Bank ran her best race to date at Bellewstown last month and could also go well.
