FormscanBy Tom Weekes - KINCH has an obvious chance in an open looking handicap. He is clearly no star but is an able type in this type of contest and comes here a previous CD winner who again ran well at this trip when second here last month. Chagall is another with strong form claims having failed narrowly here five days ago and while, at the time of writing, his revised official rating hasn't been published, he will be a few pounds 'well-in'. He is clearly in excellent form and while he did beat the selection comfortably in September, KINCH beat Chagall by 0.5L when the pair met 33 days ago and KINCH is no also 6lbs better off with Chagall badly drawn in 16. Both Never Rains' wins have been in Claimers and while she doesn't look to be ahead of the handicapper, has been running well recently and is well suited to this trip. Bay Of Skaill's only win was gained at Laytown in September 2018 but has been running well from her rating in recent times and should be able to get involved while Olly's Folly has yet to win in 40 starts and disappointed latest but has some place claims on previous form. Course and distance winner Spiorad Saoirse's rating has fallen to a winneable level while other CD winners Latchet and Munfallet were each well beaten on recent starts.
