A 30-runner sprint handicap to finish off the day. Trueba ran very well when runner-up on testing ground here in March and has form on faster going and Polytrack. Fit For Function is consistent enough and should reverse November's narrow defeat by Noirvento at Dundalk on the revised terms. Inventor's success at Tipperary came over 5f but he stayed on strongly in what was only his fifth start so a 6lb rise doesn't look insurmountable. Zen Silence landed a 5f Dundalk maiden under Colin Keane where she stayed on strongly but in a wide-open handicap the vote goes to DEE SPRINTER, who was making ground at Navan last time when impeded at a crucial stage and has been dropped 1lb.
