Verdict

Humm Baby won a Sligo handicap over this trip on ground with some give and couldn't manage to overcome a 7lb rise at Wexford though Conor Orr's claim is a bonus here. Mill Quest was well suited by stepping up to 3m at Limerick but Jack Kennedy will ensure her stamina comes into play again and she's greatly respected. TRANS WOOD has done very well since stepping up to this trip finishing a close second at Wexford before scoring in good style at Listowel. She's up 6lb but looks well enough treated to go in again. Cerealice is still a maiden and has never raced on ground this quick but looked on the upgrade when runner-up at Tipperary and should be winning soon.
