Verdict

The pick of several plausible candidates in this competitive handicap could be BALLYGLASS BEAUTY, who returned to form when scoring at Sligo in June and ran at least as well in defeat at the same course last month. Steps Match regained the winning thread over this C&D last time and is likely to be bang there once again, while fellow last-time-out winner Hand Over Fist is also shortlisted. Secret Artist is unexposed in this sphere and is another to consider.

  1. BALLYGLASS BEAUTY (IRE)
  2. STEPS MATCH (IRE)
  3. HAND OVER FIST (FR)
