Summer Knight is still a maiden but came very close to beating Kedleston at Leopardstown a couple of weeks ago and with Conor Hoban reducing his weight by 5lb he should again go close. Money Spider, another maiden, was just behind that day and was staying on well enough for connections to give hope that he can reverse the positions. July Revolution looked one to follow when beating Love Is The Key over 7f at Fairyhouse but a combination of an extra 10lb plus heavy going stopped him in his tracks at Naas. California Rose has improved since running on heavy going which she may not get here but if further rain arrives she would probably be the one to beat though Fibril wasn't far behind her at Bellewstown last time. CONSONANCE was making his handicap debut over 1m1f at Leopardstown last week and looked a likely winner at tonight's trip but just failed to find extra. He's on the same mark here and can gain his first success on his sixth start.
