Formscan By Dan McEvoy - CAPITAL THEORY sets the standard on numbers in this claimer by being 18lbs clear on official ratings. The six-year-old gelding recently changed stables from Charlie Johnstons to Declan McGuigan and looked to be in good form when staying on late at Ballinrobe 16 days ago. If reproducing that run and with a good draw here, the son of Muhaarar should be there abouts at the finish. Long standing maiden Quatrain can feature here on this step down in class in first time blinkers%3B however, she is left a fair task on ratings and place prospects may be sensible. The somewhat consistent Powerful Hook Head should be capable of completing the three after an encouraging showing on his most recent start in Killarney.

For three years old and upwards to be claimed for #15,000 or less (Minimum claiming price #4,000) (also open to horses which are not to be claimed) (horses which are entered not to be claimed must, at entry, have run at least twice and be rated 70 or less)
Weights - 3-y-o 9st 8lbs 4-y-o and up 10st 2lbs
