Stamp Of Authority won this on his only start on the track a year ago and is just 2lb higher, though hasn't been in the best of form. Blankiedoodie is on a hat-trick after narrow victories at Gowran and Listowel and is just 3lb higher so has to be greatly respected though it won't be easy from stall 18. Joseph O'Brien appears to have found the correct trip for UK import MARYLEBONE, who ran easily his best race for the yard at Gowran last time. He won't need much more and gets the nod though Kodianne ran her best race for a long time on the same track and is 1lb lower. Wilderness was always in the front rank and stayed on well when landing a Cork handicap and a 4lb rise isn't insurmountable.
