Verdict
Lily Light Foot would be a unique winner as she's the first runner from an Irish stable with joint trainers. She was well beaten at Downpatrick last time but Rachael Blackmore takes over from a claimer. Oskar High is the only distance winner and, though out of form, has dropped to his lowest mark since scoring at Kilbeggan in 2017. OUTSIDE THE DOOR had shown nothing before reappearing at Wexford where he attracted strong support before being well beaten into second. He wouldn't need to do much more to get on the scoresheet and receives weight from Ballyadam, who has Jordan Gainford's claim to aid his cause, and Samba Dancer, who is 0-9 but has run quite well the last twice. Esthers Marvel is 0-17 and has been looking a few pounds high.
