FormscanBy John O'Riordan - Third in a stronger race at the Curragh on Derby weekend, COCK AND BULL(1) can go two places better. Although raised 3lb for that promising effort, the Emmet Mullins-trained five-year-old can run off 2lb lower in this contest once taking his jockeys claim into account. In a tight knit handicap, he has to concede very little weight and looks the one to beat. Winner of her last two starts on the Flat, the Ted Walsh-trained Gaoth Chuil rates the main danger. A strong stayer, who is in excellent form at present, she looks a mare to keep onside. Former course winner Slurricane is also worthy of consideration for a stable that tend to target this meeting.

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.
