Verdict

Lily's Star is just 4lb higher than for her C&D victory last month but she hasn't been in the best of form subsequently. Lord Kenmare isn't the most consistent of performers nowadays but he's slipped to a mark just below the maximum here and has been given a definite chance. LISIANTHUS hasn't had much racing but his best runs have come over this C&D and he was going on strongly at the finish here last week. He gets the vote though Lift The Gloom looks a threat as he scored over the C&D before finding 1m3f too far last time. Naoise showed his first sign of ability when last seen here in November and is the type to do better.
