ALPHONSUS LIGUORI (1) sets a clear standard judging on a 0.5L win at Killarney. Carries a weight penalty for that however ability is a long way clear of the figures. Represents a yard in form and finds ideal opportunity to secure a second career win before settling up in grade. Hard to oppose with any confidence. HOLY LETTUCE (3) showed ability when 10L fifth on recent debut at Killarney. Should improve for that effort and looks likeliest to follow home the favourite. FATE'S GAMBIT (2) lost his way on recent starts. Brings some solid placed form. Each way claims against this field. THE MONDAY CLUB (4) should benefit for the drop in trip. Place hope.
