Dew Line is a testing-ground specialist and had her conditions when completing a two-day double at Listowel. Connections won't be disappointed with just a 5lb rise for her latest success over subsequent winner Theos Well and further rain would greatly aid her cause. Palmones didn't last out 1m4f in that latter event but is much better judged on her earlier efforts over this trip while Escape Paradise is another who didn't stay that trip on her last start. Malinka hasn't had much experience and is still on the upgrade despite being beaten by Tara Dylan at Roscommon while course and distance winner The Nutcracker would have a fine chance from the bottom of the weights providing the ground doesn't turn soft. Sister Blandina and Special Focus are yet to prove they stay the trip so, in a tight handicap, it's JACOBS WELL who gets the nod as he was returning from a very long break when just failing to hold off Texas Rock on heavy ground at the Curragh last month.
