KILCARAGH BOY is in the veteran stage now but he has been in good form around here this season and a drop back to his winning distance should him go close again. Murvagh Beach looked to be coming to hand when second on his handicap debut at Newcastle and this looks a race of similar quality while Golan Cloud has placed here the last twice but doesn’t have a great strike-rate. Farocco and Romeo Brown would also have a chance on their best form.
