FormscanBy Alan Magee - KATASHUNA opened her account at the fourth attempt over a mile at Navan last month and that maiden has produced a number of subsequent winners. The Dermot Weld-trained filly has scope for further improvement and could well be suited by this extra distance. Castleheath has proved a good dual-purpose gelding for connections but may struggle to follow up his latest Curragh victory off a 9lb higher mark. Frank Pickle made a bold bid from the front on his penultimate outing at the Curragh while others to consider include Juniper Sling, Lady Plimsoll and Deuteronomy.
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.
