FOLLY BEACH is still a maiden after 16 starts but only just failed to get up over slightly further at Tipperary a fortnight ago and that may be good enough for this. Hello Power was always in the front rank in another division of the same handicap and only faded close home. Slieve Bearnagh hasn't won since 2021 and is only slowly dropping in the ratings and though Tastyee has been in good form she's 7lb higher than her last winning mark. Jabbar was staying on over 1m1f at the Curragh though this is a big step-up in trip but Romann ran his best race for some time at Fairyhouse and can't get any lower.
