Demi Plie only had half-a-length to spare over Isle Of Destiny at Downpatrick in June off level weights so the latter should have no problem turning the tables on these terms. Gordon Elliott's mare hasn't quite lived up to that form in subsequent starts and the stable may have a better chance with course and distance winner Mrs Lovett, who looks on a fair mark if getting round safely. THE CADDY ROSE (NAP) made a successful chasing debut at Navan and beat all-bar the useful Tintangle at Clonmel with Moskovite around seven lengths behind. The latter has a 7lb pull but it doesn't look enough to prevent Noel Meade's mare from going in again. Ask Heather was conceding Fiveaftermidnight 12lb when beaten five lengths at Naas so there should be nothing between them on the revised terms.
