THE INVISIBLE DOG was placed three times at Dundalk before a close fifth at Navan and though showing little over hurdles has improved enough to take this. Fiesole went up 7lb for winning here at the beginning of the month and couldn't quite cope in a better race at Clonmel while Mountain Kingdom has had just one victory in 36 career starts. Tintown Robin continues to climb the ratings without winning and is 10lb higher than his only victory. Buonarotti Boy will enjoy the conditions but has a long absence to overcome.
