Vinnie Is Busy is capable of winning this though hasn't run since August and may be warming up for a summer campaign. ARDERA RU has been in excellent form all winter and, though raised 8lb for scoring at Gowran, loves the conditions. Coventry looked promising when landing a Navan maiden two years ago but hasn't made the expected progress while Ballyadam Destiny probably needs further. Missiee has won here and at Wexford in four starts this winter and was taking on much stronger opposition on the latter track last time.
