Fit The Cove has won a dozen races in a career that began in 2003 though his latest was in 2012. He loves testing ground but so does SPECIFIC GRAVITY and it's difficult to see past him despite a huge weight. He was having his first start since January when a good fourth in a rated race at Killarney last week and should return to winning ways. The three-year-old Wider World gained a surprise but comfortable victory in a maiden here before disappointing on faster ground in a Navan claimer. She'll need to do better and though Sadler's Mark will love the conditions he hasn't run since March of last year. Zero Euro has produced the odd decent performance but is still a maiden after 23 starts.
