Brosna George has flattered to deceive too often and has now had 13 starts without winning. Ballymadun won over this trip at Gowran in September and found 2m6f stretching his stamina at Punchestown last time while the veteran Western Goose won over the track a year ago and trip and is only 1lb higher. QUEEN KHALEESI is a long-time maiden but this looks a good opportunity. She stepped up to 2m7f at Thurles last week and looked like winning until headed on the run-in so compensation awaits from the same mark. Itsallhappening failed to complete three times before a much better effort over 3m here last month where he led for a long way so looks the main threat.
