KASHMIRI SUNSET, a winner over 2m2f at York in October 2014, was a long odds-on favourite when runner-up to Crest at Navan last week and will need to do better though he deserves another chance in a moderate contest. Runyon Rattler had been going reasonably well over the minimum trip before finding 2m4f sapping his stamina on heavy ground at Fairyhouse in November while Dontbackme, who had looked a certain future winner when runner-up at Kilbeggan last April, was beaten a long way on a return visit the following month and hasn't run since. Lofgren's second to Petite Mouchoir at Thurles would be good enough for this but he's been beaten a long way in both subsequent starts.
