HAPPY COMPANY is the only course and distance winner in the line-up and is just 1lb higher than when scoring at Sligo in June. He's been running better than his form figures suggest and the assessor has given him a chance. Highly Toxic is well below his last winning mark though doesn't score often enough but the lightly-raced Wavepoint, a winner at Wolverhampton in July, was only caught in the shadow of the post over the track and trip three weeks ago. Invincible Queen has only won once in 17 starts and that was on heavy ground but she's run well on quick going so has to be on the shortlist along with Chaparral Dream, who along with Lovely Is The Rose was engaged at Dundalk last night.
