Verdict
Harmony Rose has been running well in slightly better grade though is still looking a couple of pounds high. JARVIS (NAP) couldn't get to grips with the classy Harry's Bar at Dundalk but that was no disgrace and he's on the same mark as when scoring here in April. Curraheen Princess completed a Navan double in May and has been narrowly beaten in two subsequent handicaps while Tide Of Time is 4lb lower than his last success on this course in September and could provide the main threat.
