Distillate^t¹⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: Adam Caffrey⁽³⁾| T: A McGuinness| OR: 69| D

8/1

Latest win at Cork in May. Creditable ninth of 19 in handicap at the Curragh (6.3f, good to firm, 12/1) 16 days ago, having to pick way through. Can get involved in this less-competitive event.4

Boadicea Belle^p⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 9-0| J: R Whearty⁽⁵⁾| T: M J Smith| OR: 62| D

6/1

Unreliable type. Improved on recent efforts to win 15-runner handicap (5/1) at Leopardstown (7.2f, good to soft) 8 days ago, driven out. Obvious claims if she's in the same mood.

Forecasts

Giuseppe Cassioli (2/1), Volatile Analyst (11/4), Red Heel (11/2), Boadicea Belle (6/1), Distillate (8/1), Wild Mountain (14/1), Not Just Yet (20/1), Ransom (33/1)

GUISEPPE CASSIOLI produced his best effort for some time when scoring at Leopardstown 8 days ago and he's still feasibly treated on the pick of his past efforts, so can follow up at the possible expense of Distillate, who was better than the result in a more competitive race at the Curragh 16 days ago. Boadicea Belle is another one to consider for all that she's not the most consistent.
