Verdict

Elzaam Blue completed a Dundalk double in the spring and didn’t get the run of the race on his hat-trick bid there. Breaking Story doubled his winning tally when well supported at Limerick but a 9lb rise looks harsh. TIMOURID was in good form at Dundalk over the winter and made a very encouraging return to Turf at Leopardstown. He’s only 1lb higher so has to go on the shortlist while Eloquent Arthur, a dual winner for Richard Hannon, found 5f too sharp on his second run for Denis Hogan and will be much better suited here. Coill Na Sionainne may find the ground too soft on her return from a long break.
