After landing a maiden on heavy ground here in January, Mr Cracker competed at a high level and there was much to like about his close third behind Luska Lad in a Fairyhouse Grade 2 in April. Casey Top should find the trip and ground to his liking after a very good run behind One Cool Tornado at Listowel last week. SIVOTA gained his first victory over timber at Punchestown in April when storming to success over Manhattan Boy. Fitness shouldn't be a concern and he can continue his winning ways though Lucy Stone is progressing at a rate of knots and produced her best run to date when chasing home The Fonze at Kilbeggan.
