Golf At Gowran Park Optional Claiming Race

Fully exposed 5yo but recorded the best RPR of his 51-race career when winning at Dundalk last month (6f); tame enough Chester run since and drops to claiming company here; won't want too much rain.

Kept very busy on AW in recent months, notably collared close home over 7f off 77; didn't count back on turf at Bellewstown last month and looks to have a bit to find here at the weights although rider's claim brings him into the mix.

Five-time winner on AW at 6f/7f for Pat Murphy; poor yard debut effort at Dundalk in February when ridden by 10lb claimer; seems an unlikely one here.

Second runner for the yard and stays better than Clonmacash, two wins last year coming at 1m, including claimer here; best of three runs this term came over C&D last month when fourth in decent fillies handicap; trip/ground to suit, definite contender.

Eight-time winner, most recently Naas handicap over this trip in March (soft); safely held both starts since but closely matched with Gloriously Glam on C&D run on these better terms.
