Less Of That (7/2), Missguided (7/2), Heavy Weight (9/2), Easy Boy (6/1), Claregate Street (13/2), Reinas Queen (12/1), Lizard Point (14/1), Belclare Boy (14/1), Sharp Operator (14/1), Marvellous Ways (16/1), Carvelas (20/1), House Limit (20/1), Sarah Ash Calum (50/1), Kitsune (50/1)

Verdict

Less Of That has been running very consistently in three starts this season and is entitled to go very close in this seemingly, while Claregate Street is one that produced an improved run on handicap debut and could build on it now. It might be worth resting however with a pair that went well in a similar race at Fairyhouse last time out. Easy Boy was second in that race, removing some doubts about his stamina in the process but there was also lots to like about the late closing of MISSGUIDED, who seemed to appreciate the longer trip and can now be expected to go well over this distance.
  1. Missguided
  2. Easy Boy
  3. Less Of That
