MOSTAWFEE is a speculative selection in what appears a tough handicap to assess, with no outstanding candidates. The Dandy Man gelding shaped well on his seasonal bow at Tipperary in April over just shy of this trip, he hasn't exactly built on that since but there were some positives from his recent AW outing and, now rated 11lb lower than he started the term, he could prove up to this if in the mood. Lightening Stricks won at Listowel in June on his sole run of the year to date and isn't overlooked despite carrying another 9lb now while Baby Power and Snap Power are others that could be given a chance.
