Lady Chimera attracted support after a year's absence at Downpatrick last month and was still in the lead when falling four out. She should strip fitter while there are no fitness concerns with Mr Dazza, runner-up twice at Downpatrick last month and the mount of Barry Geraghty here. DUSTY TRAIL has to concede weight all-round but should be up to the task as he has been in fine form on the level scoring comfortably over 1m2f at Clonmel last week following an excellent comeback second at Gowran on very fast ground.
