MILLROCK LADY went to Galway with a favourite's chance after a battling success over this C&D but she completely misfired in the race won by Impersonator. She was entitled to be fancied at the Festival on her earlier form and is taken to bounce back. Ballochroy was also a market leader at Roscommon last month but disappointed behind Duroob. His earlier victory over Hoopy at Tipperary was over 3m and that may be his best trip. Lea Lady has found one too good on her last three starts and is still a maiden after 18 career runs. She may be a few pounds high at present but The Duke Abides ran his best race to date over timber at Killarney last month and this point-to-point winner is on the upgrade. Clifton Debut is another to consider in an open event.
