Verdict

BLAIRMAYNE (NAP) completed a Fairyhouse double before a fine run here in June, where he had Hasselnott behind, and he wasn't beaten far over an extra furlong at Galway last week so can concede weight all round. Californiadreaming won over a mile here in June but was beaten a long way over this trip at Naas last month though that was a Listed contest. Smokey Quartz has also been tackling much further, including 1m2f here last time, and makes his handicap debut while Victorious Secret is best on Polytrack. Intense Stylist is yet to win in eleven starts but has gone close on several occasions and should be in the frame again.
