Verdict
Robin De Carlow has an extra penalty having won three times over timber including a Listed contest at Cork. She was reported to have hated testing ground back there for a Grade 3 last time so today's conditions should be ideal. Awayinthewest was beaten 2l in that former contest and has a 7lb pull in the weights. That was over 2m6f and this shorter trip will suit so there's every chance of her reversing the form. HONEYSUCKLE is unbeaten between the flags and in two runs over timber, the first a facile maiden victory here and the latter a comfortable Listed success at Thurles. She's facing tougher company here but looks one to follow until beaten. Tintangle couldn't quite handle Grade 1 company last time but had battled her way to victory over the minimum at Thurles and will be suited by the extra.
