RACE VERDICT

SHOOT TO KILL is thrown in on last year’s form and was a big eyecatcher from a poor draw at Roscommon last time. Noel Kelly’s gelding loves a quick surface and looks ready to strike. It’s difficult to knock Amemri who has ten career wins to her name, while Faoladh shouldn’t be far away. At a price, last year’s runner-up Dynamic Force is worth keeping an eye on.

RACE 4 PREDICTOR

RACE VERDICT

A rather thin handicap, at least on paper. Imnotleavinyou is the one to beat, knocking the door down with three runner-up finishes in a row, but she’s not certain to appreciate quicker ground. The vote goes to FONTAINE KHALED, whose best effort was on good ground at the Curragh on debut and this is a sizeable drop in grade. Andosky completes the shortlist.

RACE VERDICT

Reverting to the turf off an 8lb lower mark than he has on the AW, MEPHISTO holds plenty of appeal with proven stamina. Jurality, Tassarolo and Maxwell Smart appear likely dangers, while Pons Aelius could be one to go well at a decent price with trip and ground to suit. [Alan Hewison] Source: Racing Post

RACE VERDICT

Officially rated a modest 69, TEOLOGIA (nap) could prove much better than that in time and looks the one to beat here on the back of a second in a Ballinrobe claimer where she still looked a work in progress. Gatlinburg could prove the main danger, while Maxminelli holds solid place claims and Sonny Corleone is a potential improver having joined Gordon Elliott recently. [Alan Hewison] Source: Racing Post
