It's difficult to see past PRESENTING DYLAN (NAP) who has been raised 10lb for an impressive victory at Roscommon on Monday, his first start for Gordon Elliott, but can race with a 5lb penalty here. Padraic O Conaire won this in 2018 and also scored here last October. He looked on the way back to form at Listowel last time and is well treated at his best. Resurrected Duke just failed to catch the winner over an extended 2m1f at Ballinrobe and this trip should suit while Sargent Lightfoot stayed on strongly over 2m2f on the same track and should be losing his maiden tag soon. Woodbrook Boy and Happie Days were engaged in the 2.35 at Clonmel yesterday and Lightsider in the 2.00.
