This trip may prove ideal for RACY LACEY, who left her maiden form well behind when finding just one too good back from a break on her handicap debut over 1¾m at Navan last month. She is 2 lb lower here and makes plenty of appeal. Grove Island responded well to first-time blinkers (retained here) when fourth in a big-field handicap recently and he is feared most ahead of Spruce Meadows.
