FormscanBy Mark Nunan - BEARWITHMENOW won over this trip at Wexford on his last completed start in June and a 7lb rise is negated by the booking of a good claimer. He’s open to more improvement and his trainer excels with this kind of handicapper. Ballyglass Beauty enjoyed the step up to this trip when beating an in-form rival at Kilbeggan last month and she can go well again. Camilla’s Choice was back in third on that occasion and this will be just her third start in handicaps so she’s another with plenty of upside. Battle Of Benburb has no stamina concerns after winning at Wexford and finishing second over 3m3f at Sedgefield but he wouldn’t want the ground to ease too much.
