Just A Normal Day was a winner last time out over fences and could be very well handicapped in this sphere, based on his British form of old. Rathnaleen Girl continues to run well but on that basis isn't getting much relief from the assessor, while Authorative won well over C&D last time, but might not get to dictate as easily now. FLEURYS FORT is capable of winning and, having faded in a better race at Gowran last time, might go well here under a promising 7lb claimer. Rain In Spain is far from out of things bidding to make it three wins in four starts.
