FormscanBy Donal Murphy - As a Grade 2 winner, KALA CONTI looks quite well treated off an initial mark of 130. Tried at the highest level on her most recent start, the French bred bay was beaten by less than three lengths. Starting off in handicap company now, she will be ably assisted by Carl Millar, who claims a valuable 7lb. A Group 1 winner on the level, Helvic Dream is the second choice. A close third when last seen in a Listed contest at Listowel, he had three reopposing rivals in behind. Successful at the Dublin Racing Festival in February, the Stuart Crawford-trained Brucio is sure to prove popular with locals. In truth, a case can be made for many others in this competitive affair, with Telecon, Banana Tree, Lieber Nicc and Ninth Titan all sure to have their supporters.

An extended handicap hurdle for four years old and upwards that at entry have run at least three times in hurdle races (140 = 11st 12lbs)
Penalties - Winner of a hurdle race or hurdle races after calculation of the handicap shall carry any penalty or penalties which may be allotted by the Handicapper.
