After a reasonable run on heavy going at Limerick, Zebgrey finished last at Dundalk and is tried in first-time blinkers. Somebodytoldme's head defeat by Know at Navan in September was strong form and she will have found 5f too short on her reappearance. Set To Fire was only narrowly beaten at Dundalk in March and may not have been suited by heavy ground at Leopardstown next time so should go well though ERYSIMUM, who had shown real potential in his three starts last season, was conceding 9lb to Love In The Sun when runner-up at Cork and should go one better.
