Texas Radio and Annie Irish have both won twice around here and the latter is very well handicapped if anywhere near her best though she pulled up over hurdles at Cork a month ago. Pushaq has been running quite well without getting there though he's been a beaten favourite the last twice and though Lizard Point would have to be considered on his fine run over further here last time, where he wasn't caught until the final stride, a strike-rate of 0-29 tempers enthusiasm. Alwarda will get a good ride from Gary Halpin though has a bit to find with Texas Radio on earlier running but this can be left to PERFECT TAPATINO. He was having only his fourth start and making his debut for Joseph O'Brien when an unlucky loser at Leopardstown last month and made no mistake in a huge field at the Curragh on Saturday. A 6lb penalty doesn't look enough to prevent a quick follow-up.
