FormscanBy Michael Graham - ELLAAT hasn't been beaten far in his last two races on testing ground. He stays further than this which could aid him as this ground is likely to be very attritional by the last race. Your Honor has a tough draw in stall 20, but rallied well to win over a similar trip on soft ground at Killarney. He can show up well again despite the draw and a 7lb rise. Rock On Seamie reverts back to the Flat and has been given a chance by the handicapper who has dropped him by 4lb. Title-chasing Billy Lee is a notable booking. El Tren has to bounce back from a disappointing run in Navan, but that is possible. Hello Power, Elle Dorado Rock and Rockview Roman are other possibles.
An extended handicap for three years old and upwards rated 47-65Penalties - (after calculation of the handicap) A winner shall carry 7lb extra for each race won.
