FormscanBy Donal Murphy - A case can be made for all seven. Successful in this very contest 12 months ago and rated 1lb lower now, MICKEY THE STEEL is the selection. Not seen since April, the four-time winner has been given a chance by the handicapper and will be ridden by young apprentice Sam Coen who claims a valuable 10lbs. Inishmot Prince finished with a flourish when registering his first win on turf at Navan recently, and it'll come as no surprise if he manages to follow-up. A close fifth in that Proudstown Park contest, Rathbranchurch will have his supporters, while Escaping Thejungle, who hinted at a return to form when fourth at Laytown, is another leading hope.
An extended handicap for three years old and upwards (80 = 10st)Penalties - (after calculation of the handicap) A winner shall carry 7lb extra for each race won.
