More Madness is progressing with experience and did very well to beat Minella Reception at Limerick but a penalty gives him a stiff task. Melanjo scored over this trip at Gowran, hanging on after being well clear at one stage. She'll improve again and has to be considered along with Whats Happening, who has been staying on at one pace over 2m and will appreciate stepping up in trip as he's a winner between the flags. CHILTERN HILLS had to battle to catch Ourbeautifuldream at Wexford and this looks tougher but she will definitely be suited by the extra half-mile and looks the one to beat.
