Despite a huge field there's very little to go on but That's Mad stormed home in another big field over the minimum at Navan and would have been the selection but for a moderate draw. Sonaiyla, another with the form to win this, has fared even worse so the vote goes to Dermot Weld's newcomer TIME TUNNEL. She's a daughter of Invincible Spirit out of a Falmouth Stakes winner and an inside berth can enable her to get off the mark. Woody Creek showed potential over this trip last season and didn't get home over an extra furlong at Leopardstown on her comeback while Zodiacus belied her 50/1 SP with a fine debut here and has the inside berth.
