SILVER SERVICE has had both starts to date over this track and trip and been narrowly beaten on each occasion. She can go one better though Cedars Of Lebanon started off at Dundalk then ran in a 6f Listed contest at Naas where she was in touch until fading from 1f out so reverting to this trip looks the right option. Yolo Again showed the benefit of her opening run with a much better effort at the Curragh where she led until headed inside the final furlong while Eagle Song is another front-runner who showed excellent pace when tackling 7f at Leopardstown. Rangefield Express looked as though another furlong may be required when placed over this trip at Dundalk but Isle Of Innisfree was beaten a long way at Cork and will need to do much better.
