Verdict

The only four-year-old, Knight Of Malta, just scrapes into this with a rating of 75, raised 4lb from his second at Listowel last week. He was beaten just over a length by Stately Home at Bellewstown on Wednesday and should give the three-year-olds a race. Spilt Passion has become disappointing after looking a certain future winner earlier this season but THAT'S JUST DANDY looks as though he can win at this level. He led until the closing stages over a mile at Bellewstown in August on just his third start so normal progress can see him off the mark. New Moon Rising didn't enjoy softer ground at Gowran and has experience on this surface.
