Formscan By Tom Weekes - COUL DORE was gambled on when narrowly failing at Fairyhouse recently and can still win from today’ 4lb higher rating. Well held in maidens last year and slowly away on seasonal reappearance in May, the selection showed nice progression at Fairyhouse where he was headed in the closing stages. He remains a little unexposed and should continue to climb the handicap ladder. Stablemate Swift Charm has recent form but is more exposed. Copper Craft’s recent disappointing effort is forgiven, as his rider reported ‘his mount stood on himself when leaving the starting stalls’ and has claims on previous form. Folk Warrior showed more at Dundalk on his latest run.

An extended handicap for three years old and upwards rated 0-60
Penalties - (after calculation of the handicap) A winner shall carry 7lb extra for each race won.
