Battleroftheboyne won this a year ago and has continued to run well on ground much softer than he would like so must have a chance of completing the double despite being 6lb higher. SWEETEST TABOO gained her only victory to date on fast going at Tipperary in 2014 but she's been running very well recently and only succumbed in the closing stages back there earlier this month. She's taken to go one better though there are numerous dangers including Suburban Sky, who will appreciate dropping back to the minimum after a good run over 6f at Naas. Candelaria hasn't had much racing and ran easily his best race so far when just failing to catch Nora Batt at Cork last week while Cresendo found 7f too far at Gowran last month on just his fifth start and is expected to do better. Kiss The Stars has been in excellent form at Dundalk and is another with a chance in a wide-open handicap.
