Killarney

Though possibly best over a bit further than this, ELUSIVE DUKE boasts good recent form and may score for Oisin Murphy. A probable danger is Mythical Rock, a costly failure at Gowran, an outing that may have come too soon after a good Limerick run. No More Porter, who would get the vote if this race were at the Curragh, has yet to prove he is quite as effective elsewhere. Marambo, making his handicap/seasonal/turf debut, is a potential dark horse. [Alan Sweetman]
