FormscanBy John O'Riordan - With Colin Keane back in the saddle, DERRY LAD is given another chance to prove that he is well handicapped. Although yet to win for trainer Emmet Mullins, the gelding showed definite promise on his stable debut at Leopardstown, before running a big race when fourth at this track on his penultimate start. His latest effort at Ballinrobe in July is best ignored, as the seven-year-old never saw daylight and, was then hampered when finally getting a run. Clear Quartz had little chance from a wide draw at Galway on his reappearance but is undoubtedly much better than that bare form. Duke Of Leggagh is another to consider under his capable 10lb claimer.

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