The booking of Rachael Blackmore for two-times points winner Definite Dilemma is interesting but this may chiefly concern the top three on the card. Mambo Dancer was a tough stayer on the all-weather for Mark Johnston but has never won on Turf. Marine One was also best on Polytrack so it is probably worth giving another chance to Tramore bumper winner HAMMERSTEIN, who broke a blood vessel when pulled up at Wexford on his hurdles bow and has been given plenty of time to recover.
