TINGARRAN EXPRESS went close at Clonmel on her penultimate start and having been halted by a shuddering error 2 out back at that venue last month, Philip Fenton's mare gets the verdict to open her account. Tango Theatre was unlcuky to bump into a big improver on return at Ballinrobe 5 weeks ago, so she's put forward as the main danger, ahead of A Dublin Job and Latest Model.
