Verdict
An interesting contest where there could be one or two springers in the market. CASH FOR HONOURS is the suggestion with Island Arrow and Don't Be Bleu others to the fore of our thinking. Rock Salmon, Rothres and Dance Island have all qualified for marks in races won by fair sorts and face more realistic tasks in this company. Pure Genius didn't build on her debut second to One Gulp but is handicapped accordingly and could clearly win this if able to run to that sort of level whilst Ar Nos Na Gaoithe is from a yard that's capable of having them fit after an absence. Island Arrow has a couple of pieces of decent form to his name in Ireland and has joined a shrewd yard. Don't Be Bleu has solid form in the book and remains well enough handicapped to be a factor but Cash For Honours gets the nod. He ran well enough on his handicap bow at this track to believe that there's a small race in him and his breeding suggests that he'll relish this longer trip. There'd be a question mark if the ground dries out too much but there's a lot to like about his chance otherwise so Cash For Honours is the call.
