Plenty of winning course form here with Stanhope, Teddy Boy and Boughtinthedark all having won twice on the track. SHOWMOLINA's two recent victories at Naas have been over 6f on ground with plenty of give. However, he showed tremendous speed to win easily last time and is taken to defy a 10lb rise. Tai Sing Yeh very nearly made it eight career victories when beaten a head at Gowran though that was over 7f and though Elanora has won here she does better with some give in the ground. The progressive Empress Of Bough could provide the main threat as she made a bold bid to make all over 6f at Cork on just her sixth start. It might Be You was engaged in the 4,40 at Down Royal yesterday.
