Race preview
MON COEUR is a capable stayer who will relish every yard of this trip. He arrives on the back of a keeping-on second in the qualified riders' handicap on the opening day of the Galway Festival, while a never-nearer sixth in a good handicap at this track in May also strengthens his claims. Kilmeaden is up in trip after getting off the mark in a Galway handicap. He has one piece of very notable form, when runner-up in a Ballinrobe maiden in May behind the high-class Carmers. Comic Book has been extensively plying her trade in better company and has to rate a threat, while Mo Ghille Mar and Ragmans Corner will have plenty of supporters.
