16:40 Curragh - 11 October 2020 - Racecard - Horse Racing - Sporting Life

UP WITH THE PLAY caught the eye at Gowran last month and could do a lot better now handicapping, the excellent Luke McAteer in the saddle ticking another box. Overheer is a big player after his professional Tipperary win, while you couldn't rule out Lady Savanah again.
