You Can't Catch Me ran a big race over timber at Downpatrick just five days ago and will have his supporters back on the Flat. He's capable, but will have to run up his best from this rating. NELSON ROAD has been competitive of late and must be given fair claims eased 3lb for this mission. He earns the nod, though Micras will be a danger if coming on for the reappearance run at the Curragh. Analytical Mindset is a potential improver while Political Policy should be right there if translating winter AW form back from a short break.
- Nelson Road
- Political Policy
