An impossible-looking handicap to end proceedings further complicated by the fact that Enter The Red was due to run here yesterday and several of those near the foot of the handicap will probably be carrying overweight. A low draw may not be ideal for the likes of Shore Step, Cappadocia and Idalia. The three-year-old Gottardo appears better berthed in stall 19 but Bellick needs to bounce back quickly from a poor run when favourite at Carlisle on Wednesday. Polly Douglas could be interesting but DANDYS GOLD is the token selection with Dylan Hogan taking off a valuable 7lb. A winner over a similar trip at Cork in May, he’s run creditably off this mark over 7f the last twice and that staying power suggests he’ll be one of the finishers today. Flawlessly also warrants a mention being better off at the weights than when fourth behind Shore Step here in June.
