Race preview

FOCUS ON HEAVEN was outpaced in the closing stages when second over 7f at Limerick last time and is expected to benefit from this step up in distance now moving into handicap company. Upgraded wasn't beaten far over a mile at Gowran last time and is expected to be thereabouts off an opening mark of 87. C&D winner Elm Grove is 10lb higher than when scoring at Clonmel in May but is no forlorn hope for a place.
