Trenchtown Rock has been raised 8lb for a comfortable victory over hurdles at Wexford in April and was well beaten on the Flat last month. Lucky Phil was just run out of it at Clonmel before a decent effort on the Flat at Sligo so should get into contention while Doyen Bay, who had been running between the flags, took advantage of a lowly handicap mark over timber at Tramore. He's up 8lb though this doesn't look much tougher but the vote goes to FINTOWN BOY. Mick Winters' charge was in fine form over hurdles at the backend of last year and quickly reverts to the smaller obstacles after two poor runs over fences. Grey Atlantic Way has yet to win but has gone close on a couple of occasions this year and can get into the frame.
