RITA LEVI had been threatening to win for some time before getting off the mark at the Galway Festival and can defy a 6lb rise. Galtee Mist also won at the Festival before just being denied in a better race at Cork and she looks a threat with just 4lb extra to contend with. Festina Plente has been running well without winning and looks likely to get into contention again while Njord was just run out of it over a mile on soft ground at Killarney and has a course and distance victory to his credit. Drumquina battled to victory over 6f at Naas and then ran well in a big field at the Curragh so should get in the mix with Andrew Slattery's claim a real bonus.
