CRACKING NAME is up 8lb for a comfortable victory on heavy going at Tipperary on Monday and the eight-times winner is on her highest-ever mark. However, Daniel King's 10lb claim can see her complete a double though Sam Ewing is excellent value for his 5lb claim which puts Talking Tough in with a chance. Philly's Hope and Pimstrel had a battle royal over a mile at Bellewstown with the former just prevailing but the shorter trip can see the latter reversing the form. Indiana Grey won this on heavy ground a year ago and is only 4lb higher while Born Invincible, a winner here last September, will also have the going in her favour.
