Our Scholar has a penalty to carry for his victory over 1m6f at Navan on Thursday but made most so shouldn't be inconvenienced by dropping back in trip. He holds Rihani on a line through last week's runner-up but YOUR HONOR has been gradually improving and won with a bit in hand over 1m2f at Sligo where he battled back after being headed. He's taken to go in again as Starlight Rose has run poorly over hurdles since landing a 1m5f Down Royal handicap. Gavin Cromwell's horses are still running well and Theonewedreamof would have a chance on her second at Gowran in June.
