11/2
Fairly versatile six-time career winner, has twice knocked on the door at Cork of late over 1m2f/1m½f. One pace in the final 2f when stepping up in trip last month at Limerick but more expected back over a more reasonable distance.

15/8
Finished half way in the Irish Lincoln before a couple of solid run last over an extended 1m at Cork. Could be a big player in first time cheekpieces and step up in trip likely to trigger more improvement.

14/1
Tough and genuine veteran who has won 11 of his 74 turf starts on the Flat. Not disgraced over a similar trip on seasonal debut at Cork last month but needs a couple of these to falter.

10/11
Off the mark at the third time of asking for connections on seasonal debut in a Gowran Park soft ground maiden last month over 1m1½f. Looks a progressive sort and likely to go well once again.

Forecasts

Johnny Drama (10/11), Charcor (15/8), Aussie Valentine (11/2), Dream Walker (14/1)

Verdict

Winner of a 17-runner Gowran Park 1m1½f maiden last month on seasonal debut, JOHNNY DRAMA can continue his development in this contest. The Ger Lyons-trained gelding could possibly lead on the way to victory at the expense of Jessica Harrington's Charcor, in first-time cheekpieces and racing stalwarts Aussie Valentine and Dream Walker.
  1. Johnny Drama
  2. Charcor
  3. Dream Walker
