WILD DESIRE wasn’t beaten far when fourth at Ballinrobe last time. She won’t want anymore rain but Paul Nolan’s mare should go close otherwise. Taggle Og disappointed at Limerick recently but ran well for fourth behind Scotch Quay over track and trip before that with Tsarina Sophia further behind. She has decent claims off her current mark while Saint Irini didn’t fare too badly in a tougher contest at Naas on her latest outing and is not out of this. My Forever Friend can go well back over timber today and Trenchtown Rock won off a similar mark here back in September.
