Democrat gets vote
Willie Mullins' versatile eight-year is at his best on a flat track and is sure to ask serious questions from the start!
The last time he visited Roscommon, Davenport Democrat won by 21 lengths and then disappointed when an odds-on favourite at Galway.
He was back on the winning trail at Bellewstown on his latest appearance, making all to beat War General by a comfortable five and a half lengths.
The hat-trick seeking Line Ball, Wexford winner Classic Croco and the former Aidan O'Brien-trained Streets Of Gold make this an interesting contest, but Davenport Democrat to rise to the challenge is the prediction.
In-form Fran Berry can guide Kingsdale Orion to victory in the Irish Stallion Farms' EBF Median Action Maiden.
Mark Roper's colt ran a cracker at the Curragh nine days ago, when a close third behind Warriors Key and Eskadron. The form was boosted when fifth placed Mica's Island went on to score subsequently.
The moderate Irish Stream is at the right end of the weights and could provide the answer to a competitive looking Boyle Handicap Chase.
His only success to date over fences came here and he should be spot-on for this, following a recent spin on the level at the Curragh.
