Race preview
LOW SUN ran well on chase debut and first start for new connections at Kilbeggan in June and will be well suited by today's longer distance. Winner of the 2018 English Cesarewitch and rated in the 140s over hurdles, he stays very well, likes summer ground and should benefit from his chase debut. Fred The Foot finished in front of Not Available at Clonmel latest and is himself rated in the 130s over hurdles. He is a maiden from six chase outings but should get involved again, with some more improvement possible from Not Available on his own third chase start. Desire De Joie is reasonably capable but should find a few too strong. Spades Are Trumps was pulled up on his latest two starts and has plenty to prove in a first-time visor. Jammy George is a maiden from nine chase starts and might find a few too good. Sullane Hill was well beaten on his only previous chase run and while well beaten at Wexford latest, had previously run well at the Punchestown Festival.
