Geological has won four times around here but has had 53 runs on the track. PLOUGH BOY is 3-23 here but arrives in winning form having scored on the beach at Laytown so gets a tentative vote in a wide-open affair. The three-year-old Bailly has much more scope than most of these having won a Naas handicap before finding Listed company too hot on a return visit though this is her first start on the surface and she's badly drawn. Annabelle Rock has a good record on the track though also hasn't had much luck with the draw but Fridtjof Nansen is running very well and has an obvious chance if taking to the all-weather.
