GAME CATCH (NAP) is one of only two who have won over the trip having lost his maiden tag in a Kilbeggan handicap from 5lb lower. He looked to have a bit in hand that day so the extra shouldn't be a problem. Wavylake, who was just under three lengths back in third, should get closer on 5lb better terms but the consistent Time And Times hasn't proved he stays this far, a remark that also applies to Lady L'lerom. My Newbrook Rose gets the trip and may have been a bit unlucky at Ballinrobe as her reins broke.
