Verdict

Indian Tomahawk has yet to make the frame on Turf but has won his last two on the Polytrack and has only been upped a pound. Hunt was a close-up third at Fairyhouse after winning at Dundalk but tries 1m for the first time. Lily's Rainbow has won over the trip at Dundalk and, last time, at Naas but has 6lb more here and is more exposed than most her rivals. CAPE WOLFE has improved this year and, though only winning on the Polytrack so far, has plenty of decent form on this surface. Ger Lyons' Piccolo gelding can defy top weight with Song Of Love and Herewego having lost their way.
