Majestic Timeline was in excellent form around this time a year ago but hasn't run since May and is 10lb higher than her last victory here. Danz Gift showed potential in three starts on Turf and on his debut here last month when not beaten far over 6f. The lightly-raced Kimbay beat tonight's rival Ability N Delivery just over a length here then followed up at Listowel despite a 10lb rise. Another 4lb makes this tricky and the runner-up will be a massive 19lb better off at the weights so should have no problems turning the tables. Johnny Feane has acquired Best Be Careful from Mark Usher and the five-times Turf winner will be primed for this but a chance is taken on BATTLEROFTHEBOYNE. It's over two years since he last won but he's dropped to such a lowly mark that he should get into the action and showed a bit more promise at Navan last time.
