DUCKY MALLON was placed over a longer trip in slow ground at Roscommon last time but had earlier won over 6f at the Curragh, beating several of these in the process. Lily's Prince finished closest to the selection on that occasion but still has three lengths to find. Bluesbreaker won over 5f here a week ago with Oor Jock, Californiadreaming and Somebodytoldme behind while Cappadocia has been placed on several occasions this year but has done all his winning on the all-weather so far. Cresendo is relatively lightly raced and may be capable of better.
