Eshtiaal, a dual winner on the Flat for Brian Meehan, hasn't shown much to date in maidens over timber but makes his handicap debut from a lowly mark. Borussia hasn't been beaten far in any of her three handicap runs to date and it will be a surprise if she's isn't there at the finish but FORT CARSON was just in front of her at Tramore last time and he can finally lose his maiden tag at the 13th time of asking. Misty Lady is back on the same mark as when successful at Fairyhouse in January and is another contender along with Written Inthestars, who was in the lead at this trip before being run out of it by Tipped Up Harry at Fairyhouse.
