Verdict

Baron Samedi is expected to improve over this sort of trip though has a big weight for what he's achieved. Next In Line ran well behind Zenya at Roscommon and attracted support at Sligo but failed to fire. Slieve Bearnagh scored over 7f at Roscommon and looked like winning over a mile on testing ground here last time until caught in the closing stages. His pedigree suggests this longer trip will suit and he looks the main threat to DIVINE CELT. John Murphy's filly has yet to break her duck in six starts but hasn't been beaten far in any of her three runs since switching yards including over this trip at Roscommon.
