The veteran Cerca Trova is the only course and distance winner in the line-up and capable of going well if ready after a break, especially if attracting support. Roja Dove has managed to win three times over timber in the UK and starts out for new connections on what looks a fair mark but if MARINO MARVEL runs like he did at Thurles last month he'll take some beating. Still only four, he stayed on very strongly, just failing to catch Turasoir, and with further progress likely should get off the mark. Another from the same age group, Muroor, ran easily his best race so far behind Tintown Robin at Clonmel last week and a similar run should see him in the frame.
