FormscanBy Mark Nunan - A chance is taken on top-weight ARTHOR who is one of a number of interesting handicap debutants. Fitted with a tongue-tie having shown little on his first two starts, Jimmy Mangan's charge ran a nice race when ninth of 25 in a strong maiden at Naas and Mike O'Connor, a rider with a good record at this venue, claims a valuable 5lb. Further down the weights Man After Midnight is one to note after a better run at Clonmel last time. Dan King is another who is well worth his claim and cheekpieces may sharpen up the daughter of Sholokhov. Ahead Of The Posse, placed in two bumpers, has the ability to get involved off this mark but may prefer better ground. Of the more experienced types, Mastermind was second in a big field at Naas but remains hard to win with and 2m5f course chase winner Indie Belle may find this trip inadequate. %0A
