COMMODUS has been competing in tougher handicaps since placing at Navan last month and Joseph O’Brien’s filly may prove good enough. Unlike most of these, Gold Jasmine has actually won a race though that was only a maiden claimer at Tipperary while Dottie Vallens has something to find with the selection on running at Navan. Several make their handicap debuts and are worth noting for any support including Espirit D'Escalier and Sestriere though She's My Dream makes more appeal representing John Oxx.
