Verdict
Rathealy was beaten less than a length over this trip at Leopardstown on his penultimate start so has to be worth a second look. Kate O'Brien should get a tune out of Wholelotofrosie but recent improved efforts have come over further. Focas Mor has been struggling to get her head in front but MEZOGIORNO broke the ice at Leopardstown last month. Mick Halford's filly has been raised 7lb but might still be improving and still receives weight all round. Reckless Lad is fairly consistent but a little one-paced.
