ELUSIVE DUKE fulfilled early promise with his victory at Leopardstown and may be able to follow up. The Elzaam gelding got on top in the closing stages over nine furlongs and going slightly further now can help him defy the 7lb rise. Starford could also still have upside after opening his account in good fashion at Gowran. That was his handicap debut and he received a 7lb rise too. Coulstys Way also comes here in winning form, although her 8lb hike for a 1m4f triumph here looks a bit harsher in comparison. |
Top weight STARFORD can follow up on his handicap debut win with the step up in trip likely to be in his favour. He's gone up 7lb for that victory but he beat some in form rivals and he still looks well treated on his maiden form. Flying Fortress was a shade disappointing when well backed last time but he's another who is well treated on his maiden form and can pose a challenge dropped back in distance. Kevin The Great was undone by a poor draw last time but showed promise in maidens previously so completes the list of dangers on his handicap debut. |
