Verdict

CONSTANT COMMENT (NAP) looks the one to be on here. He followed a maiden victory at Naas by following up on his handicap debut at the Curragh on Sunday when coming with a late burst to land a lucrative handicap over a mile so the extra yardage should be in his favour. Tilly's Chilli has a similar profile and her recent victories over this sort of trip suggest she'll be difficult to keep out of the money. Remember The Days was a couple of lengths behind her at Roscommon but the revised weights give him a clear chance while Sweet Sounds won both starts as a juvenile and may just have needed her return effort at Naas where she looked as though this longer trip would be in her favour. Sir Edwin Landseer was at his best on soft ground in his first season so any further rain would do his chances no harm.
