Formscan By Gary Carson - RAHMI has been running in some very hot handicaps and may appreciate a slightly easier task now. The Pivotal gelding has dropped 10lb since running well to finish second in a conditions race at Gowran Park last month and looks on a nice mark now. Leopardstown maiden winner Uncle Goalie is open to further improvement and looks on a fair mark, off 79 for his handicap debut. He does face more battled hardened performers now though. City House ran well when chasing home easy winner Greydreambeliever at Gowran a week ago and is another to consider.%0A%0A

An extended handicap for three years old and upwards (100 = 10st)
Penalties - (after calculation of the handicap) A winner shall carry 7lb extra for each race won.
