Verdict

Lady Ranger steps back up in trip under a penalty having won over 7f at Gowran. Cairdiuil was runner-up over track and trip earlier when So Sensible posted a better effort in fourth and both can figure in this while YAMATO went close back in handicap company at Dundalk in July. Michael Halford’s charge may prove good enough though Snoozing Indian has plenty of scope and Cresendo should improve for the longer trip. Fire And Passion went close at Wolverhampton for Jeremy Gask back in April and debuts for new connections today.
