Verdict
Light Breeze hadn't shown much before landing a Navan handicap then ran moderately from a 7lb higher mark at Cork. Luminent was a length behind in the former event and also disappointed on her next start. Muntahez, who finished mid-division at Navan, did much better in a first-time visor at Ballinrobe and should get into the frame providing the headgear works again though the vote goes to NEVER RAINS, who has gradually improved with racing and was going on strongly at the finish at Cork last time. Eyeoweyou is another who showed improved form last time, beaten only a neck at Leopardstown after being up with the pace throughout.
