ALL CLASS scored over the course and distance on soft ground in May and appeared to break a blood vessel when well beaten when long odds-on at Cork last time. She’s probably still well handicapped and can gain compensation. Dani Barcelona had no answer to Ballinlough Gale over the track and trip last month but is on a fair mark and should get into contention while Weather Alert ran easily his best race to date on heavy ground at the Curragh back in May and has more to offer. Dawn Of The West hadn’t shown much until Colin Keane steered her into second at Thurles and normal progress would see her in the frame.
