Verdict
GASTA is top-rated here and looks to have been put in at a fair claiming weight. Jim Bolger's filly has been running in decent handicap company all summer and will appreciate this drop in class. Innamorare has won three of her last four and beat a big field of handicappers at Leopardstown so she's an obvious threat but Prove The Point doesn't win very often and was beaten in a similar contest at Bellewstown last time. Zalzar ran easily her best race to date on the latter track last week and further progress can see her in the frame while both Dragon Girl and Santorini Sun are capable of going well with their low weights.
