Verdict
The four-year-old Cradle Mountain ran a fine race on testing going at Listowel behind Swamp Fox and, with just a 1lb rise to contend with, has to be on the short-list. The veteran Ballyadam Brook isn't finished winning just yet judged on his close third behind Emcon at Listowel while the versatile Lilly The Lioness completed a hat-trick in mid-summer which included two victories over fences. ROSIE ALICE (NAP) completed a double on heavy ground last December and produced a couple of fair efforts on much quicker going in the spring. With conditions in her favour, she can get back to winning ways. Oighear Dubh makes his handicap debut from a lowly mark after landing a Kilbeggan maiden and he's on the upgrade.
