Three Majors has won three times around here including off 9lb higher and bounced back to form behind Jackmel last week. Guanabara Bay has been getting going too late in recent races but is well handicapped on his best form though this can go to LA NOVIA. Michael Halford's filly is back on the same mark as when scoring at Fairyhouse in the summer and was unlucky in-running over the track and trip last week. Glib Speech is just 2lb higher than when landing a Naas handicap though that was his only success in 26 starts. Clonville was a surprise winner at Gowran in May but didn't run up to that form later and hasn't been seen since July.
