Curraheen Princess has won three and finished second three times in her last six and has only been raised 3lb from her last victory. She's unbeaten in two around here and the last three winners have all been drawn high so Dream Today, who arrives in winning form having scored at Laytown, is one to keep an eye on. The top pair in the handicap have won three times here while LAUGH A MINUTE won from a higher mark here in March. He's run very well in major handicaps the last twice and is taken to defy a low berth. He finished just in front of the hat-trick seeking Gordon Bennet here a couple of weeks ago and can confirm the form though Thunder Eclipse, who didn't enjoy a clear passage, should get closer.
