FormscanBy Tom Weekes - SPANISH HARLEM has run well in two recent heavy-ground beginners chases over this distance. Rated 136 in this sphere, he has chased home some smart types on recent runs and seems dependable. He finished a head behind Aime Desjy at Gowran in February with that horse in turn defeating Duffle Coat by eight lengths subsequently. Summer-type Duffle Coat has been running well in recent heavy-ground races but has a bit to find. Walnut Beach is a six-race maiden over fences and needs to improve to win. Fourbi won a French bumper back in October 2019 but his Irish form is poor and returns from a long layoff.
