15/8

Fifteenth of 16 in handicap at Galway (14.1f, good to soft, 10/11) 59 days ago. That race probably came too soon, just a day after landing a gamble at the same track. Given a break since and he's one to consider.

Forecasts

Glenroyal (15/8), Sir Callisto (3/1), Gotta Catch'em All (3/1), Pillar Of Hope (5/1), Qamari (5/1), Railwayview Lady (6/1), Son Of Hypnos (9/1), Goin' (16/1), Razdan (16/1), Doctor Grace (16/1), Boxing Great (18/1), Morse (25/1), It's Tim (33/1), Almenfee (40/1), Zuzukel (50/1), Thyer (66/1), Royal Alliance (66/1)

The step up to 18.6f didn't work out for SIR CALLISTO here earlier this month, but he wasn't given a hard time and is appealing back at what appears to be his optimum trip with Colin Keane doing the steering. It's probably best to draw a line through Glenroyal's latest run and he is second choice, while Son of Hypnos is a viable each-way candidate.
