LADY ISCHIA made a sound start when chasing home Vocarium at Punchestown in April and the winner hasn't let the form down. Gavin Cromwell has booked Patrick Mullins and the combination can go one better. Best Of Dubai, runner-up to the smart True Self at Down Royal, didn't run up to that form at Wexford though probably wasn't suited by the heavy going. Iamastartoo almost made a winning start on the latter track in May and may just have needed her run at Punchestown last month on ground softer than she would have liked but runner-up Florazi would probably prefer some more rain. Terrible Beauty has joined Shay Barry after an impressive victory between the flags at Ballyragget in March though the runner-up has done nothing for the form.
