Verdict

After landing a Leopardstown handicap, SELSKAR ABBEY didn't quite come up to expectations at Down Royal two days later but it may have come too soon and a three-week break can enable him to get back on track. B Cosmos has gradually improved since stepping up in trip and though unable to match the pace of Harasava at Sligo it was only his second start of the season and he'll make a bold bid to go one better. Sheeba was staying on strongly over a mile at Leopardstown last time and should go well off the same mark and like Song Of Love should be suited by stepping up to this trip for the first time.
