Onenightidreamed has won four times in his career, all over this trip on heavy ground including Group 3's here and at the Curragh. His in-form trainer tries him in blinkers after a lacklustre reappearance at Naas and his overall form will make him difficult to beat. He had a nose to spare over Sruthan here last May and is 3lb better off with that rival, who was over four lengths behind Rose De Pierre at Cork in August though the latter was receiving lumps of weight and disappointed on her next two starts. FLYING FAIRIES has a fitness advantage having finished a close third in a Group 3 at Naas last month, her first start for John Oxx. She improved throughout last season and with the ground in her favour can go in again.
