POWERSVILLE is the only one of these to have won over this stiff 5f and has been in excellent form, scoring over 6f at Sligo then just failing to concede 19lb to Trueba over that trip here last month. Connections won't be happy with a 5lb rise but she's won from a higher mark in the past. Associate Rock has yet to win but went very close at Bellewstown last time and a repeat would see her in the action. She holds Pillar on that run though the latter is now on the same mark as when last successful and has to be respected. His stable companion Ken's Sam's won at Dundalk the last time he raced over the minimum though he's 8lb higher.
