Race preview
This looks to be between TOUGHEN UP and Play It Again Zaam who are closely matched on official ratings. The former showed a real aptitude for soft ground when getting to within a head of the winner over the same trip in Limerick. The horse a place behind him in third came out and won a maiden at this track last week. Play It Again Zaam is only rated 1lb inferior to Toughen Up and has switched to Joseph O'Brien after a promising third in a big-field maiden on testing ground at the Curragh. Several winners have come out of that race, so he holds every chance. Johnny Murtagh's Lady Onyx is a newcomer to note. Neowise can do better on her second start.
