Veteran Naturally Blond was an easy winner at Killarney following a lengthy absence but has been rewarded with a 9lb rise in the ratings. Well Polly has been raised a similar amount for scoring at Roscommon but still goes on the shortlist. DICEBOX was showing his first sign of promise over timber when sixth at Limerick. Jordan Gainford takes over the reins from a conditional and this step up in trip is likely to suit the bumper winner. Roped In is a consistent sort with Killinure Lass possibly best of the rest ahead of Battle Of Benburb.
