Race preview

SAYCE GOLD gets the nod in this good quality contest. A Grade 3 winner over flights at Cork last December, she disappointed on her next outing at Thurles, finishing a much improved third on her final start of the season at Limerick. She makes her racecourse debut over fences now and it'll be interesting to see how she fares, despite the trip being on the short side for her. The 129 rated Sapphire Lady is given second preference. She finished a good sixth in the Munster National at Limerick earlier this month, and will be helped here by the five-pound claim of Jack Foley. The consistent Make My Heart Fly should run her usual solid race, while Presenting Bonnie, who has already won four times this year, will appreciate this drop-in class. Majestic Maid was still in contention when unseating at the last on her most recent start at Galway, and she can't be dismissed.
