FormscanBy Alan Magee - PLUNKETT has won twice this year including over this trip at Leopardstown. The Paul Flynn-trained gelding has kept his form well since and was unfortunate not to add to that tally when denied a clear run at Galway last month. He also shaped well over an inadequate trip at Navan last time and Danny Gilligan, who was aboard when scoring at Leopardstown, regains the ride. Perfect Thunder beat recent Listed winner Toy in a maiden over course and distance back in April and has gone close on her latest two handicap starts including on soft ground at Navan earlier this month. Mary Salome has been a great servant to connections winning five times including twice this season while course and distance winner Half Nutz, Coins Cross and the progressive Facethepuckout, raised 25lb for two recent easy wins, are others to consider.
An extended handicap for three years old and upwards (85 = 10st)Penalties - (after calculation of the handicap) A winner shall carry 7lb extra for each race won.
