Several to consider in this competitive handicap. SOUTHGATE AVENUE bettered anything that he has previously achieved when runner-up in a 2¾m Limerick handicap recently and is appealing off the same mark back up to 3m here. Rideau Canal has slipped to an attractive mark and is second choice, with the likes of Kingkong Ciergues, Tackletommywoowoo and recent Wexford winner Arnacoeur also on the shortlist.
