Verdict

The veteran Witness Of Fashion has won three times around here and will love the conditions. DORAN THE LEGEND (NAP) was having only his fourth start over fences when gaining a convincing victory over Loch Luatha at Sligo and though raised 11lb is probably still on a fair mark so looks the one to beat. The runner-up should get closer without reversing the form. Wake Up Early went up 8lb for landing a Galway handicap and couldn't quite cope on a return visit while Enduring Love, who had failed to finish on his previous three starts, overcame a bad mistake to gain a surprise victory over 2m5f here when fourth-placed Ask Cory blundered his way around.
