Redwood Queen was well beaten when favourite at Roscommon in June but made no mistake when landing a gamble at Sligo. She's 7lb higher and meets in-form rivals here including MR MACPHISTO. Runner-up at Cork, he went one better in good style at Navan and can defy a 6lb rise. Park Of Kings is an obvious threat after showing massive improvement when well supported at Roscommon while Vale Of Glory won a handicap here in May. Contrapposto and Baltinglass Hill are others to note in a competitive handicap.
