IMPERSONATOR won this a year ago and looks to have been primed for a double as he's now on a mark just 4lb higher and looked on his way back to form at Tipperary two weeks ago. Benefitthewest is making very good progress and there was plenty to like about her easy victory at Kilbeggan. A 7lb rise looks fair and she can make her presence felt. The assessor raised Baby Whizz a whopping 13lb for his recent success at Ballinrobe which is hardly surprising granted the ease of the victory. Bean Chroi Bhriste now looks on a high enough mark after her success at Ballinrobe while Heavenly Bound's attitude left something to be desired last time when his jumping went to pieces.
