Boughtinthedark was an impressive winner at Navan last week which is why she's gone up a massive 15lb. Runner-up Sestriere was staying on well behind and can reverse the places under the revised terms. The former's stable companion BAHLWAN made a very promising return to action at the Curragh on Saturday, showing excellent pace and only fading close home. He can take this as another stable companion, Gopsies Daughter, very well handicapped at her best, has lost her form. Blastofmagic was always going nicely when scoring over an extended 5f at Navan last week and a 6lb rise shouldn't prevent another big run while Teddy Boy had Polly Douglas behind when scoring at Navan in October and any further rain would aid his cause.
