Rogerwaswrong had shown little before encountering heavy ground at Bellewstown where he did much better and is on a lower mark. Guest Star hasn't raced in these conditions but it was soft ground when ROMFORD led for a long way in a much better race than this at Cork and he can get off the mark. Thia acts on the ground and can get into contention but the remainder will all need to show improvement to get involved.
