Verdict
Doonard Prince beat a huge field over the course and distance last month though he enjoyed the softer ground that day and any rain would be welcome. Lake George is 9lb higher than his last victory which came on very fast going. He had DOUBLE FAST a long way behind and the latter was also four lengths behind Doonard Prince when he scored here. However, Rory Cleary’s mount bounced right back to his best with a comprehensive victory at Limerick last week and would take some beating in that kind of mood. Full Shilling won over this trip at Fairyhouse in June and over a mile at Bellewstown in August and he's running well enough to get into the frame.
