Undressed showed that staying is his game when beating today's rival Georges Conn over slightly shorter at Limerick. However, he's gone up 11lb and the runner-up has a fair chance of reversing the form on these terms. Gordon Elliott and Jamie Codd are a formidable partnership and Riverside City beat George's Conn just over a year ago at Navan. He hasn't been in the best of form subsequently but it wouldn't be a surprise to see a revival. GARRAI PHAIDIN landed a 2m6f Thurles handicap on testing ground in February and has continued in good form. He keeps going up without winning but his rider's claim looks a bonus and he can get back on the winning trail. The veteran Canaly looks best of the remainder.
