Brendan Bracken won this a year ago then made a successful reappearance in the Irish Lincoln at Naas. He hasn't had much racing subsequently though hasn't been in the same kind of form. Canary Row does best when there's plenty of give in the ground and he carries a penalty for a Listed victory. He was over 6l behind Pincheck at Naas last time and the winner, who looked very progressive, should have no problems confirming the form. His stable also run the year older Gymkhana, who was back to his best at Gowran though needs a bit more in this company. SPANISH TENOR landed a conditions race at Leopardstown though it was his latest run behind Psychedelic Funk in a Group 3 at Tipperary that points to his chances and he should again take care of Onenightidreamed.
