Verdict
Madaboy Cross gained the first victory of her career on this track earlier this month and though that was over 2m4f and she's 6lb higher she should get into contention again. Fairymount Boy was racing over fences for most of last season and may need a bit softer ground back over timber but SOMETHING SWEET looks ready to lose her maiden tag. She was in good form on fast ground last summer despite not winning and reappeared with a fine effort over a trip much too short at Downpatrick a couple of weeks ago. Darling Miss is lightly-raced and stays the trip while Ask And Answer was always in the front rank over the trip at Cork and wasn't beaten far.
