A chance is taken on GALLO DELL CIELO who has winning course form and is well handicapped if staging a revival. Super Over is dangerously well treated starting out for the Charles Byrnes yard and would rate a major threat if the betting speaks in his favour. Next on the list is Carrickfinn, who was a creditable fourth at Dundalk last time and also finished second over 1m here in June.
