BARTON SNOW had been in fine form between the flags before beaten a neck in a Tramore bumper when Royal Moon and Walmix were third and fourth and nine lengths behind. The former should again have the edge and gets the nod though Down Around was only beaten a short-head over 2m4f here three weeks ago so looks a real threat. Barons Revenge was well beaten in a better race than this at Punchestown in April but, with his stable in unstoppable form, it would be a surprise if there wasn't major improvement.
