FormscanBy Tom Weekes - MOVING WATER has a low 102 rating on handicap debut following a Wexford win. That race was for unplaced horses but the 15 lengths runner-up subsequently finished third from 102, while the fourth-placed horse won a novice hurdle next time out. The Big Chap landed a gamble at Limerick and while 8lb higher, is a big chap who is open to plenty progression. Nelly's Money has done most of her racing in two-mile chases, but won a Down Royal handicap hurdle in February 2021 and is now rated 8lb lower over hurdles than fences. Navigator Jack was fancied in bumpers before winning, when well supported, over hurdles at Listowel, although is without his rider's 7lb claim and is rated 6lb higher. Kingston Retreat competes from a career high mark having been raised 9lb for winning at Tramore while Nazine has obvious place claims following his Ballinrobe run. Four year old Vadaly was under pressure when blundering, and then eased, at Killarney while Sweet Sting would ideally prefer further.
