Ashton Court is 0-18 but nearly lost his maiden tag at Kilbeggan before a moderate run over fences at Downpatrick. Zinat was 4 lengths behind in the former event and looks held but RULER OF DUBAI has more scope than most of these. A good third at Tipperary in June, he started favourite at Cork a month later but met interference and can make amends. Still Alive is on a very long losing run but back on the same mark as his last victory so could provide the main threat. Mollyella didn't run badly at Cork after a long break and could sneak a place at a decent price.
