Race preview
Much of the previous form on display here has been on good ground and WESEEKHIMHERE is tipped in the hope he can cope with an easier surface today. He was almost knocked over on debut at Roscommon in July but later that month won well at Galway and looks the type who can win more races. Stablemate Mars Harper was an unconsidered 16/1 chance when winning on debut at Ballinrobe and while this is a step up on grade, the form of that bumper has been boosted by the third-placed horse winning subsequently with today's rider again claiming 7lbs. Ardla did well to win on debut at Punchestown recently and while open to progression, the third and fourth placed horses from Punchestown (runner-up Knockmoylan re-opposes in a first-time tongue-tie today) have been well beaten since. Similarly Staging Post's bumper form at Sligo has yet to work out while Camp David ran a good race on debut at Galway 58 days ago and could get involved today.
