Lunar Power is 4lb well-in here as he was raised by that amount after finishing a nose second over 1m7f here a week ago and Colin Keane was on board when he scored at Dundalk in April. Shamiyan has a big weight for a horse that has only won at Dundalk and another winner on that track, QUIET DESIRE, looks the one to be on. She ran a cracking race behind the heavily-supported Ellaat over the trip at Fairyhouse under tonight's rider and can go one better. Twentybore is 0-12 but would have got closer here a fortnight ago but for being impeded on the final bend. Coolcullen showed more dash at Down Royal and has been dropped 1lb so has to be respected.
