Nine of these are course and distance winners with Big Gossey having won three times on the track and he's been operating at Group and Listed level recently. Run Ran Run is improving rapidly having won a track and trip maiden on heavy ground before landing a premier handicap over 5f here last month for which he's only been raised 2lb. But SILMANIYA, who started favourite, was returning after a long break and didn't get going until too late so get the vote to turn the tables. Master Matt is up 6lb for winning at Fairyhouse so this is tougher while Jon Riggens, Laugh A Minute and Tawaazon are closely matched on recent form. Declan Carroll is a very smart placer of his horses so wouldn't be sending Musselburgh winner Sheikh Maz Mahood from Yorkshire without hopes.
