Nelly Las Rue was racing from out of the weights when third at Ayr and should go well off her proper mark today but MCGINTY’S DREAM makes more appeal. He faced a more difficult task when placed at Carlisle a week ago and Neil Alexander’s charge looks up to winning this on that evidence. Ceegem has slipped won the weights without yet showing any benefit while Kilcullen Lad is even harder to fancy given his recent poor form.
