Norville beat two rivals over the course and distance but couldn't handle the step-up in class at the Curragh later. Three Bells is 9lb higher than his latest success but Fix It is in good heart and though both victories to date have been at Dundalk he's been running well enough on Turf to consider. Boughtforasong has only won once in 27 starts but is rarely beaten far and isn't on a bad mark though the vote goes to LOCAL FLIER. Tom McCourt's filly has been in excellent form and acts on any ground. She attempted to make all at Fairyhouse but lost her action and stumbled slightly though she wasn't beaten far behind Muscle Beach who has won subsequently. The lightly-raced Right First has some improvement in her and could prove best of the remainder.
