Verdict
BANK ON BLACK was beaten 2l by Bold Thady Quill at Bellewstown but the subsequent 8lbs rise of the winner suggests Ger Lyons' filly can take her revenge. Partner is running very well at the moment but he's 9lbs higher than when scoring over 6f at Naas and faces a stiff task. Tweedy has run exclusively at 6f, scoring at Naas in June. She returned there last month to run reasonably well in a Listed contest and this represents a drop in grade. Sampers found 6f too far at Naas last time and is better judged on her half-length second to Captain Cole at Dundalk earlier.
