Formscan By Michael Graham - FLEETFOOT has been acquitting himself well over this trip in winning a valuable handicap at the Curragh and then keeping on for fourth in another good contest at Galway. War Rooms is the highest-rated horse and his seventh in a big field Duke Of Edinburgh Stakes at Royal Ascot was a fair effort. Puturhandstogether is of interest reverting back to the Flat. He went off favourite for the Galway Hurdle, but finished in mid-division. His mark of 82 is workable, however, he would prefer a bit slower ground. Saturn hasn't been at his best on his last couple of runs but knows how to win, while Gambino is up in trip and class after shedding his maiden tag on debut at this track.
An extended handicap for three years old and upwards (100 = 10st)
Penalties - (after calculation of the handicap) A winner shall carry 7lb extra for each race won.
