Fairylike was slammed by the handicapper for winning easily at Ballinrobe and is looking a few pounds high while Jazz Girl found heavy going against her at Roscommon and wouldn't want any more rain. Maal wins his share and is running well enough to consider though his trainer has a better chance with Act Of Love, who is on a decent mark. Sadler's Mark is a massive 12lb higher than when successful at Down Royal while No Trimmings has gone up 14lb for his Polytrack victory at Dundalk. MOJITA deserved her first success at Killarney after some strong performances and was by no means disgraced in a premier handicap at Leopardstown subsequently so she gets the vote in an open contest.
