Race preview
Recent Galway third DIVILABOTHER can step up a couple of places here for local trainer Thomas Coyle. The lightly-raced six-year-old has gone close on a few occasions this season, including when runner-up at Sligo in July. With the aforementioned Galway race having been boosted by the second-placed horse subsequently, the Markaz gelding looks the one to beat. Hill Rocket, another who has been shaping as though her turn is near, has to be given serious consideration. Trainer Cian Collins has his string in excellent form at present so the mare is one for the shortlist. Ballinrobe runner-up Ranger Billy is another capable of getting involved in what is quite a competitive race for the grade.
