15:00 Leopardstown

That was a really solid reappearance run from POWER UNDER ME so I think he looks decent value to defend his crown having won this race 12 months ago. He shaped as though he’d improve plenty for that run over C&D and with the better ground no negative he should have a great chance. Yosemite Valley is still unexposed and won at the Curragh last month. If he stays the mile he will be the danger to the selection. Real Appeal was back in the winners enclosure at Dundalk but this is definitely tougher.

16:25 Plumpton

With just the 4 rivals to beat YALLA HABIBI should be hard to oppose. He made a winning start for this yard at Fakenham and then followed up showing a good attitude at Kempton. He is up in trip again and should have more to come so looks the one to side with despite a 5lb rise. A Tickatickatiming hasn’t run badly the last twice and she could be the danger as this is a bit easier too. Ilanz scored on reappearance but then let backers down at Kelso. No surprise to see him freshened up to try and get back on track.
