Porthaw showed nothing in three starts over hurdles but ran quite well on his debut on the Flat at Naas and won't need to improve much to get involved here. Murindo showed massive improvement on earlier bumper form when a close third in a Limerick maiden over 1m3f then found 2m1f at Clonmel way beyond him. He should do better over this trip but CELESTIAL PROSPECT looks the one to be on. A son of Galileo, all four starts to date have been on ground with plenty of give and though taking a chance with tonight's conditions his overall form, especially when close behind Ezalli over this trip at the Curragh in September, is the best on view. Leaves You Baby has some fair form on Polytrack and her latest run, when tailed off at Roscommon, is best ignored as she wasn't right.
