Dermot Weld won this from 2006 to 2008 and can score again with COMEDIC ART, who looked as though she was crying out for this trip when staying on behind Galileo's Daughter at Down Royal. Jazz Girl couldn't match strides with Cherokee Brave at the Curragh but had the remainder well beaten off and is guaranteed to improve. Maggie Neary is certain to last out the trip as she was headed right on the line by Highly Efficient on soft ground at Leopardstown and the faster going will be in her favour. The remainder will need to show improvement to get involved.
