A low-grade handicap with few in any kind of form. SLIEVE BEARNAGH is a course and distance winner who has run better than his two recent runs suggest. He should give supporters a run for their money and gets the nod. Virtual Hug returns to action following a break but was last seen in winning form when scoring over hurdles on this track and could be on a nice mark back on the level. Mads Black Eights isn't exactly consistent but produced easily her best race on Turf at Killarney last time and wouldn't need much more to get involved. Morning Dew is 0-24 but would have a chance on her penultimate start at Listowel.
