NAOISE began his career last summer racing over 1m4f which obviously didn't suit and has made great strides since dropped in trip. He has a 6lb rise to contend with after his recent C&D success but he's progressing quickly enough to overcome the burden. Cailin Coillteach, who finished a length behind in that latter event, came out and won a week later and is no better off here. Translator returned after a long break with a cracking run behind Miss Motivator last week but whether that justified a huge weight rise is another matter so it's Heroine Chic that may provide the stiffest opposition. Her run behind Rocky's Pride last time was her best so far and she should get in the mix.
