Verdict

The Mcgregornator arrives here with a penalty after scoring at Naas earlier this week, when the favourite I Will Excel was a close fourth, and this looks tougher. STENOGRAPHER made a successful debut here in March of last year and has gradually dropped enough in the ratings to get into this handicap. He showed a bit more dash last time and can concede the weight in a strong event. Captain Power is probably better on quicker ground though is well treated these days while Severus enhanced and already excellent strike-rate with a comfortable victory at Limerick and his young rider can again use his claim. Silverkode takes a leap in trip after landing a maiden over the minimum here
