Ross Coakley is one of the most experienced apprentices riding in this and can steer CIRCLING MOON to a first success. Michael Halford’s gelding was only beaten half-a-length at Gowran in July and is just a pound higher here. Get Out Of Jail got back to winning ways at Galway last month and should be thereabouts again, despite a 6lb rise. Set To Fire hasn’t been entirely disgraced since scoring at Down Royal in the summer while Gordon Elliott sent Jock Talk to Chepstow in August, where he stayed on into fourth. However, this trip is a complete unknown. Foxy Lass has been in good form over hurdles lately and will be a danger if translating that improvement back to the Flat.
