Verdict
SWISS ARMY OFFICER, beaten a short-head over 7f here in December and the same distance at Leopardstown in July, ran well in three handicaps last month, including over this trip, and looks ready to lose his maiden tag. Aced It is the highest rated here after beaten a neck by Castletownshend at Bellewstown but ran poorly at Punchestown earlier this month. Gulf Of Aidan makes her debut on the surface and has never raced over a trip this far though her staying-on third in a very strong 7f Naas maiden would be good enough for this. Monzoon hasn't been running badly on ground softer than ideal.
