Tipperary bumper winner Broomfield Hall made a very promising start over timber at Listowel but weakened quickly when strongly supported at Tramore which didn't look her form. Majestic Jewel fell at the last when weakening in that latter event. Humble Glory would have won at Clonmel in April but for falling at the last but has been beaten at short odds in her two subsequent starts, weakening quickly when tackling 3m1f at Sligo. DOWNTOWN QUEEN (NAP) is taking a big step-up in trip after a much-improved run at Clonmel, where she had the much more experienced Steak And Onions behind, but looks certain to be suited and gets the vote. Winning point-to-pointer Bonne Debut had a pipe-opener in a Fairyhouse bumper last week while Reine Machine should do better when tackling fences.
