Verdict

Harry Speed was only beaten a short-head over the course and distance in July and went to Ayr to land a minor handicap last month for which he's 5lb higher. Accladora was a 66/1 chance when landing a maiden claimer at Bellewstown where she beat higher rated opposition and though she's up 7lb she's gone well from higher marks in the past. Latchet showed promise last season though hasn't run since a poor reappearance in April but Jan Steen ran his best race for Jonny Levins at Gowran and can get into the action. GREENPANDA (NAP) has continued to frustrate since her Ballinrobe victory but didn't get the run of the race at Roscommon last time so she can get back to winning ways. Power Of Ten was strongly fancied at Bellewstown but didn't quite last out the mile and this looks his trip.
