ROCK ON LILLY showed enough on returning to action at Clonmel last month to suggest she has a race like this in her compass. She comes here off the same mark and can take a leading role if she builds on that reappearance effort. Rock On Barney comes down in trip and goes up in the weights for this contest, he has finished second on all three starts this year and should give his running once more and be a threat. Fiesole was behind him last time but has a 3lb pull to aid his cause and can be in the finish while The Irritator is one to note coming off a layoff having been going well before falling last time. On handicap debut, Sunset Sadie has the potential to fare much better after a decent showing at Navan prior to this.
