Verdict

A LIKELY STORY won at the Curragh before going close at Dundalk last month. He should be bang there at the finish again in his current form. Lily's Prince finished runner-up to the selection at the Curragh and has subsequently finished in front of several of these at Bellewstown including Danz Gift, who landed a double at Dundalk back in April. Takeachancejimmy has been raised 6lb for winning over a mile at Bellewstown while Footstepsintime has been well beaten either side of scoring on testing ground at Cork back in May.
