Race preview
The Andrew Slattery-trained CLOUD SEEKER has strong claims of following up on his recent breakthrough success at Limerick. The gelded son of Masar had been knocking on the door prior to registering a first success at the Munster track. With the runner-up doing her bit for the form when a close-up third at Navan at the weekend, the three-year-old should again be competitive. Top-weight Valleyoftheeagles should be involved having run a big race when second at the Curragh last time. Stepping back up in trip should be very much in the gelding's favour. Proleek Prince is of interest on his handicap debut. Having shown ability on all three maiden starts, the four-year-old looks on a lenient mark of 69, with Dylan Browne McMonagle a significant booking.
