MOVIESTA (NAP) is a long way clear on official ratings and should be too quick for these. Twice a winner here, including under a huge weight in July and a Group 2 winner in his younger days, he wasn't far behind Washington DC in a Curragh Group 3 last month and should have far too much class. Duplication is a progressive sprinter who won here in December and has only had two runs this year, scoring over the minimum here last month. He looks the main threat as though Master Speaker has a higher rating he has a very modest strike-rate and has been running poorly. Guardia Svizzera was a long way behind Duplication in December but has improved subsequently and made all over 7f at Fairyhouse where he was always travelling strongly.
