Verdict

Rathnaleen Girl went up 10lb when gaining her first-ever victory at Wexford but her latest run at Cork should be ignored as she was badly impeded. Runner-up that day was SILENT SUN, who was beaten a neck on just his seventh start so it won't take much more for him to go one better. Island Villa has performed with credit since changing stables though a 1-34 record is hardly inspiring but the lightly-raced Whenthewindblows ran very well behind Ted Bach at Roscommon and over slightly further than this here on Saturday. Sierra Law found his best form when stepped up to 2m4f at Bellewstown so it's a surprise to see him back over this trip and though Yes Man ran well at Wexford he isn't the most consistent.
