Badger Or Bust is running very well and, though he hasn't proved himself on the surface, his overall form suggests he will be in the shake-up. Giant Slalom has slumped to a very lowly mark and looked as though his turn wasn't far off with a very good effort at Fairyhouse last month. Nomadic Diamond hasn't had much racing but showed good pace over a mile at Bellewstown last time and is one of the few here on the upgrade. CINNIN OIR has a poor record on the surface but she's dropped to such a low mark that a chance is taken on a return to form as she did a little better behind Suspect Device at Fairyhouse last time and is 9lb lower than when last winning at Galway in August.
