Verdict

Elusive Ivy overcame trouble in-running to score at Galway last week and a 3lb rise should be manageable so she's likely to be in the firing line again. However, she was behind BALOFILO at Limerick previously off level weights and the latter is still looking well enough treated to gain her third victory in four starts. King Of Oriel was attempting to give Luimneach Abu 5lb when narrowly beaten at Thurles and has to be on the shortlist along with Sizing Scorpion, who showed massive improvement to chase home Comehere Hi at Punchestown last month, his first starts since May.
