FormscanBy Donal Murphy - A small field of five but nonetheless difficult to assess. Jessica Harrington saddles both Satin and HIGHLAND BLING, with preference for the latter who is the only three-year-old in the field. Still learning his trade, the 85-rated bay went down by a neck at Galway recently and will carry just eight stone with Keithen Kennedy claiming a valuable 7lb. The winner of the Petingo Handicap on Champions Weekend, Satin returns from a lengthy absence and it'll be interesting to see how she fares. Returning to the level for the first time in over two years, the versatile Common Practice has strong claims. Successful over fences at Wexford last month, it'll come as no surprise if he manages to follow-up. Falcon Eight will need to bounce back to form if he is to make an impact, while Smooth Tom, who was second in this very contest 12-months ago, completes the line-up.
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 Falcon Eight (IRE)
He’s as tough as teak and is unlucky not to win the last two runnings of the Irish Cesarewitch, so he deserved a nice win here. He’s been a great dual-purpose servant and his full-sister Search For A Song won this race two years ago. It’s a possibility that he might go over hurdles at Leopardstown at Christmas or he might go to Dubai for the two-mile race. He has stacks of enthusiasm but he is a character.After Falcon Eight (IRE) finished 1st at Curragh on Sun, 5th Nov 2023 2m Flat Heavy

Quotes on Satin (GB)
She was good. I thought she'd run very well, she was very unlucky in the Shergar Cup as she got locked in and I thought that was her day with the small field there. The cheekpieces helped her today, she wasn't intimidated by the other horses which really helped. She showed a great turn of foot. I was worried for a second that he would get her out and then it was grand. We did a lot of shouting!. She's a good filly. We thought a lot of her last year and we ran her in the fillies' Listed race here last year, she finished 10th in it and we were disappointed. She's won on slow ground, but Shane said she absolutely hops off that good ground. We'll look for a stakes race and hopefully keep her in training next year. She'll be a lovely mile-and-six filly.After Satin (GB) finished 1st at Leopardstown on Sat, 9th Sep 2023 1m 4f Flat Hcap Good

Quotes on Smooth Tom (IRE)
Smooth Tom is a 90-horse on the flat and I was surprised how big a price he was. He handles soft ground but you would always be a big worried about a flat horse on winter ground. Andy (Slattery) was talking about giving him a rest and if he runs again it will probably be Leopardstown at Christmas. He’s going to have to step up again.After Smooth Tom (IRE) finished 1st at Naas on Sun, 12th Nov 2023 2m Hurdle Soft

Quotes on Highland Bling (IRE)
He was game and stuck at it well. Shane thought he was going too quick six furlongs out but he just kept going,. The other horse headed him and he fought back. He's only really learning now, he's a big laidback horse. He didn't run last year and he'll improve a lot from that. He'll go handicapping now.After Highland Bling (IRE) finished 1st at Fairyhouse on Fri, 7th Jun 2024 1m 4f Flat Maiden Good
