FormscanBy Donal Murphy - First time cheekpieces worked a treat on CARLO BIANCONI at Sligo last month, making the breakthrough on what was his handicap debut. The Joseph O'Brien-trained four-year-old was however later disqualified, after winning rider Wayne Hassett claimed 7lb instead of five. Owned by the shrewd Kevin Blake, the French bred bay looks nicely treated here on a mark of 77 and should go close with Hassett again on board. Jaafel didn't get the clearest of runs when fifth at Leopardstown last week and is of definite interest for the in-form yard of Charles Byrnes. Six-time winner Timourid was successful on that same Leopardstown card and he is sure to have plenty of supporters in his bid to follow-up. An excellent fifth in a Grade 1 over flights when last seen, Eastern Legend is another for the shortlist, while the returning Taipan and 2021 winner Morph Speed (first time cheekpieces) also warrant respect.
An extended handicap for four years old and upwards that at entry have run three or more times under any Rules of Racing, at least one of those runs having been over a distance of nine furlongs or more on or after 1st May, 2023 (100 = 10st)
Penalties - (after calculation of the handicap) A winner shall carry 7lb extra for each race won.
