Four wins in 2016 take his career haul to 12. Now needs to find another career best off this mark but a good claimer lightens the load.

Her two handicap wins have come off marks below 80 and she struggled off this rating at Naas. Visored first time.

13/8
Twice a C&D winner including this race last year. His last three handicap wins have come off higher marks and he drops further down the handicap having been given too much to do last time.

7/2
Landed her maiden over C&D and has travelled well in two handicaps since but has failed to last home. May prove better at 5f but for now a further drop in the weights may be enough.

Has two recent wins over further but seemed to find this trip too sharp at Cork last month. Has a stiff task in this company.

8/1
Winner of three handicaps but not from a mark this high and current form is regressive. This easier than last time and cheekpieces tried then are removed.

Forecasts

Captain Power (13/8), Elegant Drama (7/2), Guanabara Bay (5/1), Kindly (8/1), Plough Boy (8/1), Polly Douglas (8/1)

Verdict

Last year's winner CAPTAIN POWER is down to an attractive mark and meeting rivals with some doubts about them. Plough Boy arrives in excellent form but now requiring another career best, whilst Elegant Drama is a strong traveller who has been given a chance by the handicapper.
  1. Captain Power
  2. Elegant Drama
  3. Plough Boy
