Alnahar gained his third course victory here last time though that was back in January. Cache Queen is up 7lb for scoring over the track and trip and this looks tougher while Spanish Dawn, runner-up over 1m4f last time, has been raised 2lb. Navajo Ridge has never won and appears to need further but RAGTIME RED looks ready to score again. A winner here in January, he never really got going when tackling 1m5f at Leopardstown and back on this surface looks well enough handicapped to go in again.
