FormscanBy Tom Weekes - THAT'S ABOUT RIGHT is a ten-race maiden but contests a race designed for exposed handicappers, with the top weight being rated only 89. He has run some useful races in defeat, wasn't beaten far at Punchestown in January and should benefit from a recent reappearance run at Naas. Aliunde was reported by his rider to have burst a blood vessel when last seen at Down Royal in December but the on-course vet couldn't confirm that report, instead stating he had a wound on his right fore limb. He returns from a break reverting to hurdles but ran well in a course-and-distance handicap in April 2023. Paddy Elvis ran well at Down Royal in April but was well held twice since.
