MIANACH was conceding 7lbs when just under a length behind Ghetto Gospel at Navan in April and has shot up a massive 22lbs after two subsequent victories. Jim Bolger's colt is still 11lbs better off with the winner and should have no problems reversing the form. Musical Rain beat a huge field over 7f here early last month and has run very well on both starts since at around tonight's trip. She's up another 2lbs from her last defeat but looks certain to get competitive. Hedaaya was only caught by Shareen well inside the final furlong at Leopardstown and isn't on a bad mark though she's only 7lbs better off with Daliyra for a four lengths defeat over a mile at Dundalk last season. Bob Le Beau made a sparkling return to action at Naas and Jessica Harrington's progressive colt looks a major threat in an open contest.
