A poor quality handicap though very competitive. Cracking Name won over 7f at Tipperary and didn't appreciate stepping down to 6f at Listowel. AUNT AUDREY scored on fast going at Gowran then didn't handle testing ground on a return visit. Today's conditions should be ideal and she can return to winning ways. Bouquet Garni has been running well all summer and has won from a 7lb higher mark so it will be a surprise if she doesn't get into contention. Busy Bush is 1-37 but ran her best race for a long time at Gowran and it wouldn't take much more for her to be involved. Despite showing little, Tuamhain has been a beaten favourite the last three times she's run so someone must have faith in her.
