Billybuster won this last year but is 5lb higher and hasn't shown much since. Chief Of Panama is also 5lb higher after winning at Gowran but is in better form and is entitled to respect. Lindas Choice has been knocking on the door and gets on well with Ricky Doyle but THE FITZ LADY can finally get her head in front. Paul Carberry takes over the reins on Eoin McCarthy's mare and she has her sights lowered a little today. Misty Lady and Josie S And B would have a chance at the weights but both are returning from a lay-off.
