Dermot Weld had a brilliant weekend with his fillies and KNOWING YOU (NAP) can add to the collection. A daughter of Pivotal, she'll love the conditions and it was heavy going when she came with a late burst to score over 7f at Roscommon, her first start since April. Roisin Box made most and battled on strongly to score over a mile on soft at Killarney so she'll be no pushover nor will Groundfrost, who has been competing at a high level since arriving from France and should be winning soon. Empress Lyla won a claimer over the trip on heavy going last week and has moved yards but Gentil J, who won this last year, hasn't been in the best of form.
