Verdict
Millford Sound makes a quick reappearance after his best run to date at Bellewstown on Thursday though that was over 1m6f. Bellepower has disappointed since a couple of good runs in the spring SPELGA was going on at the finish over slightly shorter at Gowran and she's been dropped 3lb so looks to have as good a chance as any in a moderate handicap. Duhallow Noelie won over a mile at Dundalk in April and tackles this trip for the first time while Paistiul drops back in trip despite staying on over 1m4f at Fairyhouse. Queen Mia hasn't shown much but is one of the few who looks to have some scope.
