FormscanBy John O'Riordan - Having shaped as though returning to form when fifth at Down Royal recently, DAONETHATGOTAWAY(6) can land a fourth win at this venue. Regular jockey Reese Holohan is a huge positive in a race of this nature and the Mark Fahey-trained gelding is now 2lb lower than when second here in March. Celtic Druid, who won twice over course and distance earlier in the year, looks a big threat. Sadhbh Tormey, who was on board for both of those victories, retains the ride here. Lightly raced on the Flat, Direct Approach is an interesting handicap debutant for Gordon Elliott. The booking of the well-regarded Conor Cusack suggests that connections are expecting a big run.

An extended handicap for four years old and upwards (80 = 10st)
Penalties - (after calculation of the handicap) A winner shall carry 7lb extra for each race won.
