In depth

Formwatch

Ecstasy is dropping in the handicap but seems out of sorts at present

Barabaschi The step up in trip would need to bring about improvement

Absolute Utopia (USA) no problems with trip or ground, has dropped 3lb from last effort, each-way chance

Eliipop stays this trip, but a surprise if there is not something better handicapped

Star Turn (IRE) ran well enough in a ladies event last time, and with Fallon aboard bold show expected

Rambagh step up in trip should suit but, she hasn't always impressed with her attitude

Dunkineely Boy (IRE) solid effort last time, and off a 1lb higher mark should again be involved

Amrak Ajeeb (IRE) unsuited by the ground last time, prior to that had been running well, live outsider

Mr Ed (IRE) still a maiden, but not without a chance

Knight's Emperor (IRE) difficult ride, needs to be produced late, but not without a chance in things go right

Bold Precedent no problems with trip, lacks consistency, others preferred

Lucky Break (IRE) a maiden and may find this trip beyond him

Imari has been tried over various trips, but this looks his optimum, well handicapped on old form

Tight Squeeze A maiden and likely to remain one after this

George Street (IRE) tackling handicappers for the first time, but would need to improve for the step up in trip
