Cathryns Ruby (16/5), Umpire's Call (7/2), Sheer Raz (5/1), Keiths Boy (11/2), Teenage Kiss (15/2), Midleton Rare (12/1), Tsavo Park (12/1), Only For Our Man (14/1), Butter Fingers (16/1), Themorethemerrier (16/1), Free Flow (20/1), Ballyredinkingston (28/1)

Verdict

SHEER RAZ was in the process of making a promising start in handicaps when unshipping his rider 2 out at Gowran when last seen 13 months ago and remains with potential despite his absence. Themorethemerrier is a potential improver now handicapping, while Cathryns Ruby can make her presence felt once more.
