Not a lot of quality here but Dedrunkmunky can land this at the expense of Emphatic and Star Time. Dedrunknmunky had some fair form in points in Ireland and while she hasn't shown too much since joining new connections, this represents a severe drop in class. Emphatic has not won for over two years but stays forever and does at least have form on a quick surface. Star Time has had a break following two non-finishes while Dolmor, who had fair form for Tony Mullins in Ireland, could be interesting if Ferdy Murphy has managed to rekindle the gelding's enthusiasm. Guard Duty looks to have lost his way following an ill-advised spell of chasing and looks none too keen to be on the racecourse these days. Southerncrosspatch is a regular in these low grade affairs. A modest race in which Dedrunknmunky is selected in the hope that she can run up to her pointing form.
