Scherzando arrives with a penalty for Friday's win here but Paddy Harnett is again on board and Denis Hogan's charge should make a bold bid. Miss Cunning and Dark Magic fought out a finish over 7f here in July and there's little between them with preference just for the former. Leabaland missed the break on his debut here last month but made amends with a smooth victory at Cork, though an 11lb rise makes this tougher. Monzoon won a maiden claimer here before just failing to hold Pulse Of Shanghai on a return visit but ADAMARIS had Treble Cone back in third when making all over this trip at Leopardstown and can defy a 6lb rise.
