Verdict
Some cut in the ground would suit National Ballet, who was staying on over 1m5f at Bellewstown. One Cool Poet is another who would be suited by a strong gallop having scored over timber at Down Royal before running on over 1m4f in the Petingo Handicap at Leopardstown. He found a mile much too short here on Tuesday but FLYING DOLPHIN (NAP) ran a tremendous race behind two stablemates when third in the Northfields Handicap over 1m2f at the Curragh and looks to have as good a chance as any in a wide-open event. The lightly-raced Ruler Legend won on soft ground at Naas in May and further rain would enhance his claims.
