Verdict

Colin Keane steered Pretty Boy Floyd to victory over 6f at the Curragh last week but Sarah Dawson's charge arrives with a 6lb penalty. He had earlier been beaten just over a length by Pretty Smart over the course and distance and the winner will be better off at the weights with Sam Ewing's claim taken into consideration, though she didn't run well over 6f at Fairyhouse on Tuesday. Teddy Boy continues to frustrate but Too Hard To Hold scored over 6f on good going at Fairyhouse and made a bold bid to defy a penalty at Dundalk, though has never raced on testing ground. Make A Promise landed a Tipperary maiden earlier this month though this is much tougher but Shane Foley rode JENSONS JOY at Fairyhouse on Tuesday and his mount very nearly lost his maiden tag. A similar effort could be good enough in a tricky race.
