Fermoyle started out with a head defeat in a Punchestown bumper but that was on good ground and he's been well beaten in much softer conditions subsequently. Killarney bumper winner Mon Coeur has performed with credit over timber while Cara Susanna has been running a bit better than her form figures suggest. Isotta's best form on Turf has been over further but she should make a bold bid though MARVELOSA looks the one to beat. She's fully exposed having had ten starts but her latest effort behind Tellthemi'mhere on this track can be given a boost by the winner in the previous race.
