Rock Etoile shot out of the stalls from his wide draw over the track and trip a couple of weeks ago and made all. He's on the outside again from a 5lb higher mark but is the one to aim at. However, London Palladium, who stayed on strongly from the rear, was only beaten half-a-length and can reverse the form. NEVADA BRAVE, a winner over 1m2f at Dundalk in January, was in the lead at this trip when tackling 1m1f on heavy ground at Leopardstown and only faded close home. Pallasmore Lass started favourite on her reappearance at Cork but disappointed while the likes of Wonder Spirit and Royal Tribute have been doing their racing at Dundalk.
