Very little to go on here. Jessica Harrington's pair Bella Cora and Pocotaligo have shown the occasional glimpses of ability but have had enough chances while her former charge Timemakesitfine, claimed after finishing fourth at Gowran, may do better in a handicap. Zaamar looks to have a bit of scope though his recent placed effort was in a Bellewstown claimer so in a poor contest the vote goes to MERRICOURT, who didn't get the best of runs when well supported at Listowel.
