Verdict
A good few of this field have got questions of one sort or another to answer, so it may prove wises to focus on those with form standing to them. TENNESSE WALTZ is one of those few, having scored in a 7f apprentice contest at Cork last time out. He has won two of five races around here this year and while his new rating is demanding a career best, it is some comfort to know he's in good heart at least. Top weight Stamp Of Authority produced an improved effort here last month and has to go on the shortlist now while Sixtyfiveroses is perhaps best of the remainder while Wild Shot would have some claims if forgiven a poor run at Galway recently.
