A tough handicap to round off a cracking card. Sacrificial battled on strongly to complete a soft-ground double at Killarney and further rain would enhance his prospects from just 4lb higher. Vocaliser should be forgiven being beaten a distance on his reappearance as he hated the heavy ground and found the 1m4f trip well beyond his best. OHH LALA went up 5lb for her victory at Cork and couldn't quite cope on softer going here last month though she wasn't far behind the useful The Happy Prince. Providing further rain doesn't get into the ground, she can get back to winning ways. The lightly-raced Indian Tomahawk has been in fine form at Dundalk and there's no reason why he shouldn't continue his progress on Turf as he looks reasonably treated. Natural Woman has enjoyed heavy conditions in her races to date but, if taking to the quicker going, would be a threat to all.
