Russian Soul could make a quick reappearance in the €100,000 Rockingham Handicap on Sunday after putting up a decent display when second in a Listed race over six furlongs at Fairyhouse.

"Russian Soul only ran at Fairyhouse on Sunday but he finished runner-up to a very decent sprinter in Sea Siren," said his trainer Michael Halford.

"He has come out of that race in great shape and it's a big pot on Sunday so he is likely to turn out again."

A total of 33 horses were left in the ultra-competitive handicap following Tuesday's final forfeit stage with 15 trained in Britain.

Two of them, Gary Moore's Dutch Masterpiece and the Declan Carroll-trained Whozthecat, have been installed as 10-1 joint favourites with the sponsors Boylesports.

The possibles also include the first three home in last year's renewal - Bubbly Bellini, First In Command and An Saighdiur.
