Brendan Duke has won this for the past two years and Landline could be better than he's shown to date in maidens. Istan's second to Mirdif over this trip at Leopardstown was a good effort and he found a mile too far at Killarney on Monday. Fox Dream dead-heated over 7f at Listowel after attempting to make all so she should be thereabouts though the vote goes to YOUAREWONDER. Johnny Feane's charge had run well behind King Electric at Navan before finding 7f on soft going just too much for him at Sligo.
