BALLYMAC SETANTA (4) has some solid form under his belt and proved too classy last time to win by 7 lengths at this track in a handy 28.38 beating SURE EXILE. Ran one of the fastest times on the program in his latest win. The one to beat again. BALLYMAC KAMALA (5) is a well performed dog and winner of 18 races who was in the minor money last time out at this track (28.34). Form here at the trip sound including three wins. Although beaten ran one of the quickest times on the card last start. Can feature again. SLICK SANCTUARY (1) was the fastest winner on the program last time out, running away to score by 2 lengths (28.20) at this track. This tougher but looks a leading chance again. DROOPYS UNREAL (3) is very honest and looms as a strong winning hope again.

Good effort to score last start by 2 lengths over 480m at this track in 28.20, beating Ballymac Kamala. Boasts a course and distance PB in a dazzling 28.2. Must include.

Handy type with a solid strike-rate. Winner two back then well fancied last time and could manage only second over 480m at this track in 28.34. Has clocked a scorching 28.1 here at this trip. Leading player.
