A tight handicap but CELTIC CAILIN looks on the upgrade and can follow up her recent victory over the C&D, especially as she is just 2lb higher than when a very close third on her previous start at Wexford. Rare Symphony has been steadily climbing the ratings without winning but both Shabra Charity and Some Fiddle arrive here in good heart having both run very well at Bellewstown last week following early victories. Ta Blazes is interesting having had just one run since November and looks reasonably treated while C&D winner Point The Toes was having his first run since May when a good fourth at Tramore recently.
