Verdict
Dunroe Boy has been handed an 11lb rise in the weights after a smooth victory at Punchestown but it shouldn't prevent a big run though he has plenty to find with OUR GIRL LUCY. The latter finished around seven lengths in front when occupying second spot behind I Never Knew That and should have little difficulty confirming the form. She'll prove difficult to beat here, especially as most of the remainder are out of form though Serra Nova ran better when sent over 3m here last time. Blaze Of Fire takes a big step up in trip after a decent run over the minimum at Ballinrobe and may do best of the remainder.
