FormscanBy Tom Weekes - LYRICAL ATTRACTION has progressed very well in recent times and might follow up her recent win at this track here. She ran a very solid race on handicap debut behind subsequent winner Cuban Hope over a mile here in March and then successfully stepped up to 1m2f when beating Esprit De Lumiere here ten days ago. There was just a neck in the difference then and while LYRICAL ATTRACTION is now 2lbs worse off, today's extra distance is likely to suit her. The extra distance could well suit Esprit De Lumiere well too and he is an obvious danger. He obtained his handicap rating over a sprinting trips and while his initial handicap efforts were ordinary, it will be interesting to see if he can maintain progression over today's 1m4f trip. Whitsunday Islands was beaten by Cuban Hope on seasonal reappearance at Navan and while he is well bred, has a little to prove today in first-time blinkers.
An extended handicap for three yrs old only (70 = 9st 10lb)
Weights - Top weight in the original handicap; shall not be less than 9st 10lb
Penalties - (after calculation of the handicap) A winner shall carry 6lb extra; for each race won.
