This has an open look about it but Curramore will need to improve again to follow up a narrow Kelso win with a similar comment applying to Foster'sisland. Soivegotachance is preferred to winning pointer Burnt Ash of the two Irish raiders but Red Missile makes more appeal if forgiven a below-par run last time at Musselburgh when failing to stay 3m. Lock Down Luke could be improving but we’ll take a chance on PITEMPTON POWER as he didn’t run a bad race off similar marks in the spring and deserves some reward for his consistency.
