Former C&D winner MAINICIN is on career-high mark now but the mare scored on her penultimate start at Leopardstown with plenty up her sleeve, coming away to win by 5½L last month. She flopped next time at the Curragh but a mitigating factor there might have been the three days between runs. She could well bounce back and give this a real push. Plenty here will have chances if producing their best with Jaqen H'ghar and My Direction both C&D winners and Maudlin Magdalen boasting winning form. Handicap debutant Mountain Rock is also worth considering.
