Verdict

Thedancingfarrier won this last year, his second victory on the track, and is just 1lb higher. JUMP THE SHARK is gradually getting his act together and a close third in a huge field over this trip at Fairyhouse puts him in the driving seat. Miss Tempo had some smart form back in 2021 and if ready after a long break would be thereabouts from this mark but Killinure Lass does better over further as she showed at Thurles on Saturday for which she's penalised. Royal Rhythm scored over three miles on heavy ground at Galway in October and again in testing conditions at Clonmel on Tuesday for which he's penalised. Any further rain would greatly aid his cause.
