Burren View Lady is in excellent form but could have done without a 9lb rise for last week's Naas victory. Beat The Ballot is best on fast ground or Polytrack while Beau Satchel continues to climb the weights without winning due to his consistency. Blue Bullet was originally trained in Ireland and Brian Ellison has got him back to something like his best though this is tougher than the race he won at Carlisle. Lady Ranger went up 4lb for finishing runner-up at Ayr and is on her highest ever mark so this can go to BOBBY JEAN. Tara Lee Cogan's filly has only had eight runs in her life and is very much dependant on testing ground, which she's likely to get here. She's had a break since scoring twice in the spring and Colm O'Donoghue has ridden her to victory. Northern Rocked scored at the meeting a year ago and is 15lb lower having failed to reach a place subsequently.
