Knights Templar won twice over a mile before caught close home by Captain Cullen over that trip at Leopardstown. He's up another 3lb and the assessor may have caught up with him. INDIAN LANDING won at the meeting a year ago and is just 3lb higher. He's been lightly raced this year and can complete the double under Pat Smullen. Truly Genius is very closely matched with Knights Templar on recent form and must be a threat while Sophies Echo has been going very well though in much lesser company. Eighteen Summers has yet to win in 16 starts but has gone close on numerous occasions and that should be the case again here.
