Most of these are old friends and have scored here at some stage with both Pillar and Annabelle Rock having won three times. Collective Power was having his twelfth start when landing a 5f maiden a couple of weeks ago but had run well from this mark in handicaps previously. No Speed Limit went up 5lb for finishing second over the minimum and was beaten in a claimer next time while Hell Left Loose had a battle royal with TEDDY BOY at Laytown and it's the latter, who has never won in five starts here, who looks the one to beat from the basement mark.
