Verdict
Conversant won over slightly shorter here last year and scored at the Curragh in October. He had a long break before last month's run on the latter track and will be ready for this. Ask Delany got off the mark at the 12th time of asking at Tipperary last week but a 9lb rise makes this tougher while Fascinating Spirit scored at the 19th attempt at Cork and has a 7lb rise to overcome. FOREIGN LEGION has won four times on the all-weather but is 0-13 on Turf. He got no sort of run behind Ask Delany last time and with a big pull in the weights he can reverse the form and take this. Philly's Hope was staying on well in the same race but probably needs further.
