FormscanBy Mark Nunan - Cases could be made for plenty of these but TUDOR MANOR is unexposed and has Declan McDonogh’s assistance for the first time. The dual-purpose gelding, twice runner-up in maiden hurdles, was beaten a nose over this trip on handicap debut at Limerick and can go one better. Estepona Sun will be 5lb higher in future handicaps after his close second to stablemate Boom Boom Boom at Navan on Saturday. He can run off the same mark here so his chance is obvious. Barometer had a nice run at Tipperary and his stable would have left a bit to work on for this meeting. Intend was beaten less than a length when fourth to Grace Solution at Sligo. Both horses are lightly-raced and merit consideration.
An extended handicap for four years old and upwards rated 47-65Penalties - (after calculation of the handicap) A winner shall carry 7lb extra for each race won.
