In depth

Verdict

Dolce Sicily won a course and distance handicap a couple of weeks ago from a very lowly mark and still has something to find on official ratings. James McCauley does well in this type of race and Caesar's Comet looks the best of his trio here while Jonny Levins is another with three entries. ELEUTHERA looks the one for the yard after a fine second in a big field of handicappers over 5f at Navan on Saturday where he was staying on strongly at the finish. Born Invincible was also running on into fourth that day while Colin Keane was on board when Brother In Law was narrowly beaten in a Dundalk handicap and the combination can get into contention again.
