A very open looking handicap with the in-form horses, namely GOSSIP COLUMN and the course specialist Archie Perkins among a number holding few secrets from the handicapper. Invasion Day has left Ger Lyons since being beaten by a stablemate at Gowran Park in July and could potentially make his mark on these shores, while the lightly raced handicap debutant International Guy is another worthy of a mention. However, with no firm opinion or real zest for a financial interest, we'll elect to stick with the Ian Williams charge.
