ICELIP is a summer ground performer as he showed when landing this a year ago from just 3lb lower. He didn't perform badly later and though not seen since July is given the nod to follow-up. Balinaboola Lass appeared to find stepping up to 2m3f at Clonmel to her liking last time so it's a surprise to see her dropping back to the minimum but Freedom Square's close third to Most Honourable over the course and distance last month puts him very much in the picture. Magnetic Force was behind in that latter event and looks held. With a career strike-rate of 1-61 Noble Call is hardly one to have faith in though his only success came over this trip from 16lb higher.
