GRIZABELLA is given a chance to build on a promising first run for the Paul Flynn yard at Cork a couple of weeks ago. Top of The Pops is respected as a recent last-time-out winner, while Gamigin hasn't run on the Flat for a while but has been in reasonable form over hurdles this spring and Billy Lee has been booked for this return to the level.
