Race preview
CINSA, who took full advantage of the easier task when scoring at Wexford last time, can make it back-to-back wins. The Willie Mullins-trained four-year-old was set some stiff tasks last season but wasn't disgraced in Grade 1 company. With another summer on her back, the former French-trained filly has the potential to develop into a nice prospect this term. It would be no surprise to see her end up back in black type races in a few months. Tomjackwilliam has to enter calculations having just lost out at this track last time. The Eoin McCarthy-trained gelding was well clear of the remainder and is a winner in waiting. Positive Thinker bids for the hat-trick having won over both fences and hurdles recently. While a longer trip may be desirable, he has the pace to cope with this drop back to 2m4f.
