All of these have run within the past eight days. TYLERY WONDER returned to action after a long break at the Curragh over the weekend. He's always best on fast ground and scored on that track last summer from a higher mark than this so should be capable of carrying top weight to victory. Zaindera ran in the same race but is still a maiden after 13 starts while Calm Bay also ran at the Derby meeting and didn't perform badly over an extra furlong behind Dark Alliance. He'd previously won at Down Royal and is another who will relish the conditions. Oor Jock ran even better a couple of places ahead of him though he rarely runs over the minimum trip these days. Red All Star was beaten a nose over the track and trip back in 2013 but that was his only start over the trip in 15 outings and he ran his best race for a while over 7f at Naas last week.
