No favourite has won this in nine renewals. Mount Welcome looked to have a fair chance at Clonmel last night so the results should be noted. THE GNATHOLOGIST, who beat Dont Tell Pa, another who is engaged at Clonmel, narrowly over the C&D in April, almost scored again at Downpatrick when just touched off by Tough Mark and looks the one to be on. Aviatore finished strongly over 2m5f last time so this looks too short and the remainder are mostly out of sorts.
