Ask Katie appreciated being dropped to a mile at Listowel where she ploughed through the mud to score convincingly but didn't enjoy reverting to around this trip on Polytrack at Dundalk. LIZARD POINT (NAP) had shown nothing before a much better run when stepped up to an extended 1m3f for the first time at Gowran and, though 3lb higher, is still on a very lowly mark - Killian Leonard's claim can help him go one better. Against The Breeze has produced one good run, at the Curragh last month, and though having to carry a big weight this isn't the toughest of contests. Fly Round The Bend went up a massive 10lb for a narrow victory at Cork and not surprisingly ran poorly over a longer trip at Killarney.
