Dandyville scored three times last summer, including twice here, and is better than he's shown in two recent starts. Blind Beggar is rarely beaten far but has only won once in 19 starts and has been beaten off lower marks. Sister Lola is best at Dundalk but would enter calculations if the ground eases while Collective Power has only ever won at the minimum trip. Ampeson has only won at Dundalk and this has been a good race for three-year-olds in the past and both AMIRAT ALWARD and Areille have shown enough to beat their elders with the former, a winner at Listowel before finding Listed company too hot at Carlisle, getting the nod.
