Verdict

Ben Alexander ran well for a long way over 1m4f at Bellewstown though this is a big drop in trip. NEYLAND (NAP) is 0-15 but has been running well and was staying on strongly behind Munfallet over the trip at Leopardstown. She'll be suited by this stiff mile and has the bonus of being dropped 2lb and having Dylan Browne McMonagle on board using his 7lb claim. Sienna Lady has improved with each of her five starts and should be capable of reaching a higher mark in the not too distant future while Rockview Empress has had the same number of runs and has been dropped 3lb, despite producing her best run to date at Bellewstown.
