Several of these ran behind Breezed Well at Navan recently when THE SILVER CROWN finished runner-up. Michael Mulvany's charge had previously run well over slightly further at Ballinrobe and looks ready to lose his maiden tag. Dream Dream Dream finished third at Navan, two lengths behind the selection, and there appears no apparent reason why the tables should be turned though Charlie Swan's filly has a habit of missing the break and if getting away on terms would pose a threat. Almadaa was a further two lengths away and has been dropped a couple of pounds but is generally one paced. Great Realief had Dream Dream Dream well beaten when successful at Gowran but couldn't cope with an 8lbs rise at Fairyhouse subsequently.
