Numerian is top rated having won a similar contest here in the spring for which he’s penalised. He has to concede 5lb to BARRINGTON COURT, a winning bumper and hurdler who has been in excellent form since turning to the Flat, beating today’s rival Snapraeceps over the course and distance last month. Jessica Harrington’s charge looks the one to beat though Bolivar is very progressive and deserves a step up to this grade and Red Kelly could earn some place money.
