Verdict

Ken's Sam's ran his best race on Turf for a very long time when staying on over the minimum here last month though was six lengths behind Baby Power when the latter won at the Curragh in May. Garry Caldwell's mare also won here a month ago before another very good effort at the Curragh and should get into the mix. Tyrconnell has only won on the all-weather but was staying on strongly in a Fairyhouse handicap last time so should be prominent while She's My Dream didn't get the run of the race over 5f at Down Royal and would have to be considered on her victory at Fairyhouse in June. DOONARD PRINCE has won eight races and, though not in the best of form since returning from a long break, has dropped to a winnable mark so gets the vote in a very tricky handicap.
