Caesar's Comet has been frustrating but has won twice around here and Paddy Harnett's claim sees him on a fair mark. Bellick disappointed here last month after beating a big field at Navan but the veteran Enter The Red, who was behind him at Navan, has run very well in his last two starts and will love the conditions. PRETTY SMART's three victories have been over the minimum trip, two of them on soft ground. She was brought with a late run to get up close home at Navan last time and can defy a 5lb rise. Law Breaker made a winning debut here in May last year but hasn't made the expected progress though he began the campaign on a mark of 72 and he's now 19lb lower.
