Verdict
The front-running Queluz was never in danger of being caught at Gowran in June but his two victories have come on much quicker ground than he'll face here and he's a massive 13lb higher. Grey Willow was having only her sixth start when winning impressively at Listowel last week and, though 9lb higher, could still be a blot on the handicap. Happy Company has been improving and, though his victory at Navan was over 1m2f, today's conditions will make this more of a stamina test. LUCKY MISTAKE was having his first start for new connections when landing a Gowran handicap on Saturday. He escapes a penalty for that victory in an apprentices' race and, with conditions in his favour again, can land a quick double. Stoked is threatening to win again soon and has been staying on over 7f since returning from a long break while Keep Believing only just failed to concede a stone to All The Mollies at Listowel last week.
