Youceeyouceecee makes a quick reappearance after completing a double here on Tuesday. He has a 6lb penalty to overcome but that's unlikely to prevent another big run and he should again take care of Dinkum Diamond. Gentil J bounced back to form on the same day when a good third behind Knowing You, though had earlier been a long way behind STENOGRAPHER at Roscommon. The winner didn't have much to spare over Tribal Path that day but has only been raised 3lb and can go in again. Not A Bad Oul Day and Allegio continue to perform with credit while So You Thought looks well enough handicapped in what looks a tight handicap.
