FormscanBy Mark Nunan - POWER UNDER ME has plenty of weight but has shown solid form in stakes races this season and can go close in a wide open heat. The Mehmas gelding was runner-up in a Group 3 over course and distance last month and Colin Keane has chosen him in preference to Dundalk winner Angel Palm. Stewards’ Cup runner-up Gulliver is a regular visitor to the Curragh and, although fully exposed, should give a good account while Lustown Baba tends to thrive in the autumn and will be suited by any easing of the ground. Provocateuse proved herself over six furlongs at Naas and is a progressive front-runner while Ryan Moore’s mount Hightimeyouwon was touched off over slightly further in a similar event last time. Listed winner Master Matt might find this task beyond him off topweight but the first-time blinkered Lord Dudley could go well towards the foot of the handicap along with the consistent Arnhem.
