The weight advantage can just tip the scales here for BELLEPOWER to land the spoils following a fine second of 18 beaten 1¼L at Cork earlier this month. The three-year-old can see off the attentions of the Jessica Harrington-trained Belle Cora on handicap debut and Scorpion Black for trainer Dermot Weld who may have to settle for a place from negative draw. Distance winner, Lunastar and Porterinthejungle could play a role should others falter.
