In depth

Verdict

Rockabilly Riot showed plenty of ability on Turf at this time a year ago but has been confined to Polytrack on his last five starts. He's well enough handicapped as is Eusepio, an easy winner when last encountering this trip at Dundalk. Imaginationrunwild landed a fillies maiden here a year ago but hasn't scored since and has slipped in the weights as a consequence though she has a bit to find with Footprint, who has been struggling since scoring at Sligo in August. LANDSDOWNE gained the only success of his carer over this trip at Cork last may and was having his first start since July when staying on strongly over 6f at Navan three weeks ago. He'll be better for that and looks ready to double his tally.
