Social Distance is progressing nicely and followed a victory over 1m4f at Roscommon with another over 1m2f at Sligo so should be ideally suited by this trip. At the other end of the weights scale, PRAIRIE DANCER (NAP) has won two from three at Roscommon with his defeat coming in the Ulster Derby at Down Royal. He's 6lb higher than his latest victory but can continue his excellent run. Wild Dollar was the surprise winner of a Curragh maiden and makes his handicap debut while Exuma landed a Limerick maiden before find the ground too soft on a return visit. Right Turn came up against a well handicapped winner on the latter track and looks a big threat.
