SEVERUS ALEXANDER (NAP) had been running very well before stepping up to this trip for the first time and scoring at Listowel on Friday. He has a 6lb penalty to overcome but will be very difficult to beat. Molly Kaye is another who had been going well before completing at double at Ballinrobe and Tramore, the latest over 2m. She's a strong stayer and will love the conditions so should get competitive. Danehill Quest hasn't won for a while but found fast going and 1m2f against him at Navan last time after beaten a short-head over 1m6f at Killarney. Jazz Lady has never won but ran her best race to date when tackling this trip for the first time at Listowel last week but if the ground turns testing Liars Corner would have to enter calculations after an impressive victory on heavy going at Roscommon. Havelock was due to run over hurdles here yesterday.
