LEAH CLAIRE can always be relied on to do her best and produced another good run here last week. She has every chance of gaining compensation for that defeat. Sean Airgead found 2m6f stretching his stamina at Kilbeggan after scoring over this trip at Sligo and is another with a fair chance despite a big weight. Gorgeous Gael is progressing nicely but has yet to encounter ground this testing while Orange Touch doesn't win often enough and looks a few pounds high in the weights.
