FormscanBy Donal Murphy - Despite the fact his winning streak came to an end at Galway, MONASTERBOICE looks difficult to oppose. Reeled in close home at Ballybrit, the likeable three-time winner lost little in defeat. While the only three-year-old in the line-up here, he is the highest rated on a mark of 93. No More Porter should appreciate this drop in class and is given second preference after finishing a fine sixth of 24 in the Cambridgeshire on his penultimate start. His stable companion Exquisite Acclaim won when last seen at Gowran and is sure to have plenty of supporters in his bid to follow-up. Course winners Facethepuckout, Simply Sideways and Narmar all warrant respect, with the latter, who is fitted with a tongue strap for the first time, of definite interest after finishing a never nearer eighth when last seen in the Cambridgeshire.
An extended handicap for three years old and upwards (100 = 10st)Penalties - (after calculation of the handicap) A winner shall carry 7lb extra for each race won.

Quotes on Exquisite Acclaim (IRE)
the boys have good fun with Exquisite Acclaim and fair play to Tom O'Connor. He has horses with Henry (De Bromhead) as well and it's great to get a winner for them. I think his mother isn't well so that will be a bit of a tonic for him and I wish her well. he battled well, I think the horse on the inside (Bellaphina) helped him along and he's a tough ole soul. We were going to go to Leopardstown but I thought this track, a front-runners track, would suit him well and the horse needs fast ground. Adam know him well.After Exquisite Acclaim (IRE) finished 1st at Gowran Park on Wed, 14th Aug 2024 7f Flat Hcap Good to Firm

Quotes on Facethepuckout (IRE)
that's a little surprise because I said to Colin that the horse is well but will probably just take blow, as there is a race for him in Galway. He said at the furlong pole he 'exploded' and went for girths, but filled himself up and he said he is just well. He's only won a head, he's an eight-year-old and is a fun horse. He's in the Ahonoora at Galway and might get in off a low weight. He'd carry a penalty in that or we might look at another ordinary handicap in the week where he might be re-assessed.After Facethepuckout (IRE) finished 1st at Naas on Wed, 24th Jul 2024 7f Flat Hcap Yielding

Quotes on Global Energy (GB)
I'm delighted. He had a little problem, we solved it, and he's just got better and better,. I have to thank Ted Durcan because, even though he's won over a mile-four and a mile-two, he just reckoned he wasn't staying and to drop him back to a mile. I did and he just loved it out there. . Robbie said he wasn't going to let anyone by him, that he was just having a ball up front. . I put him in the Hunt Cup at Ascot, John loves having runners there. He was too low in the handicap, I don't know what he'll get for this and I don't know if he'll get enough to squeak in. . That opens up loads of options though.After Global Energy (GB) finished 1st at Curragh on Fri, 24th May 2024 1m Flat Hcap Good
