Burren Song has been improving on the Flat but is penalised for scoring at Cork last month. Chavajod also carries extra for scoring over 7f at Roscommon but he was in good form at Dundalk earlier in the year. Evenwood Sonofagun ran his best race to date when stepped up to 2m3f at Cork while Laser Focus, who is bred for the Flat, showed up well in a Leopardstown bumper in March but has changed stables. ROCK YA BOY YA makes a quick reappearance after a placed effort in what looked a decent maiden at Killarney on Sunday and gets the nod, though All Walks Of Life ran well enough at Cork earlier in the month to also get into contention.
