La Chassotte has narrowly beaten SAILORS WARN on her last two starts but a 5lbs penalty appears to hand the initiative to the latter, who was beaten only a short-head at Leopardstown last week, and can gain his first victory. Rockin N Reelin was behind the pair earlier at Roscommon and looks held. New tactics were tried on Rocky Wednesday at Tramore last time when David Wachman's colt made most over that 1m6f trip. However, he's by no means leniently treated here and may have a battle for the lead with At Present, who also attempted to make all at Tramore but could only find one pace in the closing stages. Whisper Cool ran well behind Bright Horizon on his return a couple of weeks ago and Noeleens Moon showed her first sign of ability at Tramore last time when she stayed on stoutly to finish runner-up to Gypsy Rose though the winner was subsequently well behind La Chassotte and Sailors Warn at Leopardstown.
