Knight Of Malta was beaten in a maiden claimer last week so it will be a surprise if he's good enough. Irish Chief has been very disappointing though didn't appear to handle Polytrack at Dundalk last time. Notre Belle Bete suffered in the ratings after a close fourth to Poetic Flare on his debut. He was returning from a three-month break when runner-up at Cork and should take care of fourth-placed Jazzy Dancer though the latter was making his debut and has much more scope. Indian Sioux ran poorly at Gowran and has had enough chances while ADELISA couldn't cope with Awhile at Fairyhouse though that was over 7f on fast ground and today's trip and going can see her off the mark.
