Ger Lyons has won the last two of these and has a pair of entries with GEOCENTRIC looking the stable pick over Jarvis. Colin Keane's mount won a Navan maiden before an excellent second in a Curragh Group 3 before finding fast going over the minimum against him at Ayr. Ladies Church finished just behind her in that Curragh event when on a hat-trick and is greatly respected along with Loveday, who just failed to make all in a Listed race over this trip at the Curragh when Orinoco River was a length back in third and Money Tree further behind. Sablonne's yard is in outstanding form and she showed plenty of pace to score over 6f at Naas and has more to offer but George Baughey's UK raider Sassy Rascal has more to do than when scoring at Lingfield.
