Verdict
Jonny Levins, who trains on the Curragh, doesn't have many runners in the UK but when he does they are worth following so BACKPFEIFENGESICHT looks the one to be on. He was a 50/1 chance when tackling an extended 6f at Cork but was in the lead at this trip before finding little when passed. Tim Easterby is still firing the winners in and Big Ace should be adding to his tally soon given his recent form on fast ground where he's been showing really good early pace. Deft Dancer is carrying a penalty for her Nottingham victory and she was taking on much better class at York where she was by no means disgraced. Richard Fahey runs two newcomers with Tony Hamilton's mount Robeam just getting the nod over the very speedily-bred Primeiro Boy.
