FormscanBy John O'Riordan - MAHLER APPEAL, a winner here over fences on his latest start, appeals off a 12lb lower mark back over flights. The Garrett Power-trained eight-year-old was recording a first win under rules but he had previously been successful in a point-to-point. With his stamina assured and a proven liking for this trip, the gelding looks a leading contender under Sean Flanagan. Three By Two, who finished runner-up in the La Touche last time, should appreciate this lesser emphasis on stamina. The mare is relatively lightly raced under rules so has scope for improvement. Recent course and distance winner Plain Or Battered has an additional 7lb to carry as a result but should again be competitive.
An extended handicap hurdle for four years old and upwards rated 80-102
Penalties - Winner of a hurdle race after calculation of the handicap shall carry 7lb extra for each hurdle race won.
