Going - Good (Straight); Good, Good to Firm in places (Round). Partly Cloudy

Formscan By Alan Magee - ELUSIVE DUKE appreciated the step up to 1m1f when opening his account in a 17-runner Leopardstown handicap in June and was having his first run for Mark Molloy when unlucky in running at Galway last time. The booking of Patrick McGettigan is a plus and he gets the vote over Paddydaddy who merits respect on his second to Angelo Pio at Down Royal. Candidly has shown promise in maidens and is one to note in the market on handicap debut while others to consider include Lady Plimsoll, who has joined Michael O’Callaghan after winning a Ballinrobe claimer, along with Four White Fury and easy Dundalk winner Church Mountain.
