RARE COMMODITY scored over timber at Clonmel and here earlier in the summer before making his chasing debut at Tipperary last month. While he was held by Glenstal Abbey when falling at the last, there may not be one of that winner's class here and he can gain compensation. Ballymac Beauty, who was beaten around 7l in fourth, could take advantage of any further slips by Edward O'Grady's charge but Macs Mandalus, who was 18l behind the winner, looks held. Chaussettes has had more experience and didn't perform badly behind Chicago Grey in a better race at Galway last week.
