Race preview
PRIVATE OFFICER brings the best recent form to the contest and is proven on testing ground. He was beaten a fair way into third at Gowran Park, but did some good late work. James Ryan's 5lb claim has him on a lovely light weight in this field. Lord Church has a trio of ninth places in maidens at quality tracks in the book and ought to make an impact on his handicap debut. Poppadom and Amy Jo Hayes could be in the hunt for a cheque, while a tongue-strap and blinkers would need to have a significant effect on Anyothername.
