JAZZELLE gave notice of an imminent victory when narrowly beaten at Leopardstown and duly obliged. She’s up just 3lb and has a much higher rating on the all-weather so can go in again. Miss Florentine has been in very good form though she’s 12lb higher than her victory at Roscommon in June. Sideshow Bob is 0-21 but got within a neck of No Show at Clonmel while Slieve Bearnagh has been dropped 1lb despite finishing second at Killarney. Barretstown has run well in tough handicaps the last twice and has dropped to a winnable mark.
