Ringside Humour, a winner over 7f here earlier this season and 1m2f at Leopardstown, has continued to perform with credit and won't go down without a fight. Seaforth will have come on for his run here last month but will need to do much better against in-form rivals. Buyer Beware was a 20/1 chance when making a successful debut at Killarney where he looked as though the experience would do him good. He'll have progressed from the run but it's SEREFELI who looks the one to be on. Dermot Weld's charge started favourite on his debut over 7f here last month and was always travelling nicely so with improvement likely he can take this before going on to better things.
