FormscanBy Michael Graham - REVERBERATION has been contesting better-class handicaps and has an each-way chance as he will likely be staying on from the rear. His penultimate start over this trip in the Curragh was a particularly notable performance, as he was beaten half a length into second in a 23-runner handicap. That winner looks progressive as she also scored in Naas on Monday. Freepark left previous efforts in the rear-view mirror when a close third over course and distance last month. He made up a lot of ground in the final furlong on handicap debut which would indicate he wasn't on a bad mark. He has been dropped by 1lb and gets a tongue-strap fitted. Tashim suffered a troublesome route in Killarney and could show up better here. Tipperary Moon is a credit to connections as he keeps picking up prize money. The handicapper has tacked another 5lb on, so it would take a career-best effort to defy top weight of 10st 2lb. Clifftop is another to consider.
An extended handicap for three years old and upwards rated 45-70Weights - Top weight in the original handicap and after the time of declaration shall not be less than 10st 2lbs and the minimum weight shall not be less than 8st 6lbsPenalties - (after calculation of the handicap) A winner shall carry 6lb extra for each race won.
