Jim Bolger loves bringing horses out quickly and Clever And Cool was impressive in the testing conditions at Cork on Wednesday, though that was over the minimum trip. Easy was also impressive over the same track and trip in July after which she changed stables while Ma Belle Artiste won over this course and distance in July before coming up against the odds-on Greenland at Roscommon. The latter's yard is represented by LIBRARY, who has improved with each run and could hardly have won more easily at Tipperary. Sheyya won nicely here in June and has been given a break as has Kayhana, who did well to score over the trip at Limerick as she'll stay much further. Zarinsk has run well in Group company after her debut success at the Curragh though looks vulnerable to a less exposed type.
