Verdict

LAUNCH TIME resumed winning ways with a narrow victory over 7f at Leopardstown recently. This return to a mile will suit the son of Time Test and he could defy a 4lb rise with Colin Keane keeping the winning partnership intact. Leannespour has more scope than most of her rivals and could land a blow if building on last month's handicap debut when fourth at Gowran, while Dawn Flame placed at the same Gowran fixture and is another to consider.

Top Tip: Launch Time (1)
Watch out for: Leannespour (17)

LAUNCH TIME has been in generally good form this term and got back to winning ways when scoring at Leopardstown last time. Only 4lb higher, he remains capable of following up despite the large field he's up against here. Mullacash Buzz has regained some consistency in his last couple of start and was only beaten 2l at Naas last time, so he can go close again if reproducing that effort. Dawn Flame returned to closer to something like his best form when narrowly denied at Gowran Park and, with a good break from stall one, can build on that effort.
