It looks like Gavin Cromwell again as MING DYNASTY is back to top form judging by his victories at Kilbeggan and later at Bellewstown where he landed a lucrative handicap in excellent style. Room To Roam makes a quick reappearance after a fair effort under a big weight at Sligo having earlier beaten Whenurgoodurgood at Bellewstown and the runner-up has a chance earlier on the card. Lucky Icon is held by the selection on latest running but Wait Here has a big pull in the weights after two defeats by the top weight and must have a chance of a form reversal.
