The Munster Maori is better than recent form figures suggest but soft ground here after a lay-off is a bit of a concern. Wrekin Rock was third on heavy going at Roscommon last week, however, so will handle conditions and makes more appeal than the consistent Bonnie Acclamation. Rose Garnet would have claims on her second at Naas two runs ago but Chamberofcommerce has plenty to prove on his efforts so far and has been absent for a while. DARASAL WANE was raised 5lb after winning over further at Roscommon last week but has plenty in his favour again here and is probably the one to beat.
