Verdict
Kannoor and Clifftop were both engaged with good chances at Sligo yesterday and the latter still looks well handicapped. The veteran Aussie Valentine has won twice around here and from much higher marks while the likes of Blyton and Koybig are capable of going well from today's marks having won from higher. Tipperary Moon has continued to run very well since completing a Dundalk double in the spring though he's been raised 5lb for his latest second at Bellewstown. Harbanaker beat a big field here in May and has continued to run well so should get involved but Duquesa Beach is 11lb higher than when successful at Gowran. FREEPARK was making his handicap debut when a very close third to Clifftop here last month. That was easily his best run to date and a 1lb drop in the weights can see him off the mark. Massa Lubrense bounced back to form at Naas and is another who has been lowered in the ratings.
