Race preview
Down Royal winner EASTMORE ran well in defeat at Listowel and will enjoy the likely good ground here. He's up another 3lb but still looks on a reasonable mark and Charles Byrnes' runner can strike again. Watching The Clock got going late to win at Galway and her trainer felt that she won in spite of soft ground that day. This will be only her third start in a handicap and she's open to plenty of improvement. Derry Lad looked well handicapped ahead of his run at Downpatrick but drifted in the market and appeared to have no excuses. Bearami Creek would prefer further, while Deed Pole is one to note in his first handicap.
