Verdict
Mister Bells has been in fine form but a 6lb rise for a narrow victory at Killarney makes this tougher. BLACK SAMURAI (NAP) has now won three of his last four and was impressive on the latter track last month. He's been hit with a 9lb rise but Patrick Mullins has been booked and another victory looks to be on the cards. Twilight Girl followed a narrow victory at Tramore with a nose defeat at Galway and should get into contention with Jamie Codd on board while Ask Cory and Goodnightngodbless are closely matched on their 1-2 at Downpatrick in May. Father Jed looked well suited by stepping up to an extended 3m1f at Sligo and is another to consider. Think Positive was engaged in the 3.55 here yesterday.
