Verdict

PIMSTREL reappeared after a long break to finish runner-up at Gowran then went one better with a comfortable victory at Listowel last week. She's been raised 11lb so this is tougher but she holds Skontonovski on that latest run and will be difficult to beat. Course and distance winner Blankiedoodie's last success was over this trip on soft ground at Thurles a year ago and he's now on a 12lb lower mark while Caesar's Comet won a claimer over track and trip in the summer. The Bog Bank would hold a definite chance on her close second here last month and wasn't suited by Dundalk next time. Mulzamm was engaged in the 5.10 at Cork yesterday.
