INFLECTION POINT was beaten a short-head over the track and trip last month when attempting to give the winner 21lb. He returned over the slightly shorter trip a couple of weeks ago and made just about all the running. He's 7lb higher which should allow three-times course winner Tide Of Time, who was just under three lengths behind in the latter race, to get much closer but not turn the tables. Arcanears was behind in the former event and looks held while Sendmylovetoyou hasn't won since her debut at the Curragh last August. Half Nutz has a chance second to none on his victory over Lustown Baba at Naas as the winner landed a Curragh Listed race last week.
