Verdict

Delaire comes here on the back of a breakthrough success and, whilst carrying a penalty, cannot be dismissed. Annie Irish is worth a look going up in distance while No Way Jack might have some place claims on his best form. C&D winner Belclare Boy reverts from hurdling and could go well while Kandahari is another that has won here but failed to show too much recently. COSMIC SYMBOL won over a mile here in June before following up at Roscommon over 7f. He ran his best race when returned to this track last time and is given a tentative note now upped distance. He should like the ground and, if his stamina holds, can go close.
  1. Cosmic Symbol
