DIXIE BLUEBELL just got up to beat Offiah, who runs in the previous race, at Fairyhouse and though beaten when strongly fancied to follow up at Leopardstown it still looked a very good run. The veteran Geological gained the 15th victory of his long career at Down Royal last month and though 5lb higher has won from higher marks in the past. The lightly-raced Magic Carousel would have an obvious chance on her placed effort behind subsequent Royal Ascot winner Create Belief on testing ground at the Curragh though she didn't run well at Killarney next time. Prisoner's Dilemma returns after a break but this is his trip and probably still has some improvement in him but Khafaaq has been doing better over a bit further. Phantom Power was making his handicap debut when staying on at Listowel and has to be on the shortlist.
