FormscanBy Alan Magee - Totally Charming and LATTAM provide a strong UK challenge for the first big handicap of the Irish Flat season and slight preference is given to the William Haggas-trained gelding. The son of Lope De Vega won his opening two starts last year including over this trip at Thirsk before his form tailed off a bit in two subsequent outings. The Newmarket trainer has a good record with his rare Irish runners and ground conditions are expected to suit the four-year-old with a nice racing weight. Totally Charming is proven on testing going having scored in great style at Doncaster last backend, while Cosmic Vega is another well served by the recent wet spell. Dha Leath, Maud Gonne Spirit and Joe Masseria are others for the shortlist with the ground in mind.
An extended handicap for four years old and upwards that have run at least three times under any Rules of Racing on or before 13th March, 2023, at least one of those runs having been on or after 1st February, 2022 (105 = 10st)Penalties - (after calculation of the handicap) A winner shall carry 7lb extra for each race won.
