Icelip produced a fair run in a handicap here before scoring at Tramore and clearly loves good ground though like Silent Account takes on some smart prospects here. LE MARTALIN is a bit unfortunate to have won just once over fences and made the smart Cadmium earn his keep at Roscommon last time. He had Ornua a long way behind when scoring at Killarney though the latter improved when boosting the form with a victory over the course and distance. Ask Susan had been threatening to win over fences before impressing at Tramore though she didn't run so well on the Flat at Leopardstown later.
