Denise Foster has two entries and those who supported Banada Bridge into favourite at Gowran won't want any more rain as conditions were heavy that day. Robindevidastar ran poorly in a slightly better race at Cork though his previous second over this track and trip would put him in the picture but CARBON KING was impressive when landing a gamble at Naas. Declan Queally's charge tackles a longer trip and is 10lb higher but won convincingly and can give the weight away. Happy Dreams completed a double over fences before beaten on testing ground at Clonmel and reverts to hurdles on a 16lb lower mark.
