This is a moderate handicap and Lady Mandeville has a chance as she's just 2lb higher than her only winning mark. Perfect Fit didn't take to the Polytrack at Dundalk but would be thereabouts on his close third here in September while Tagg's Island showed his best form on ground with some give at Sligo. Jim Bolger had three entries at the original stage and two of them looked to have much better chances than RINGSIDE HUMOUR so the presence of the Teofilo filly ticks the right boxes. She hasn't shown much but looks to have been found a soft race in which to make her reappearance and is handed the vote. Busy Bush showed a bit of potential and could hardly go any lower on her return to action though the main threat looks to be No Way Jack if he handles the conditions as he was only just beaten in a Fairyhouse nursery on fast going in September.
