The three-year-old Iceni improved with each run on testing ground in the spring and, with conditions coming in her favour, she can go well after her break. Pillar won for only the second time on his 56th start at Bellewstown before running well at Laytown last week while Invincible Queen has been going well over further and has won in heavy ground. LANDLINE completed a double in soft ground around this time a year ago and has continued in fine form, winning with a bit in hand at Roscommon a week ago. He's up 4lb but looks set to complete a double. Cracking Name has never run over a trip this short but showed plenty of pace when scoring over an extended 7f at Tipperary so must go on the short-list along with Hatton Cross, who has won off higher marks.
