Verdict

BALINABOOLA STEEL was in front and still going well when falling two out in the race won by Ingleby Mackenzie at Gowran last month. The winner has won again so the form should be good enough for this. Naturally Blond hasn't had much luck since scoring at Wexford, departing early at Roscommon and here on Monday, but Feeling The Love is getting closer to her opening victory though could have done without a 3lb rise for last week's close second at Roscommon. Icelip won over fences last month but was well beaten in a better race at Wexford subsequently.
