Gentil J won this in 2016 and followed up at Cork the following month but hasn't won subsequently, though she's dropped to a low mark as a consequence. WAITINGFORTHEDAY (NAP) has been finding it tough after completing a four-timer but has surprisingly been dropped a couple of pounds and may not have finished winning yet. She has the edge over Check Your Pockets on their 1-2 at Gowran and can get back to winning ways. Shelannga has been gradually improving and her maiden victory at Fairyhouse was given a boost by the subsequent victory of the runner-up while Galway 7f maiden winner Burning Question appeared to find 1m2f just stretching her stamina at Ballinrobe.
