In depth

Verdict

Plenty of these have been in good form throughout the summer including Casela Park, though he's suffered in the weights as a consequence. Bold Thady Quill has won just once this campaign at Cork in June but continues in good form and is on the same mark as when runner-up at Leopardstown last month. Ted Dolly began the season on a mark of 64 and is now 11lb higher following some very strong efforts though a little bit of give in the ground would be a help. TRULY GENIUS hasn't had much experience and will be racing beyond 7f for the first time but he was staying on strongly behind Indian Landing at Galway and, as he's already on a very fair mark, the presence of the promising Leigh Roche on his back makes him a tempting proposition.
