SIR ALLEN looks interesting tackling 3m for the first time and he gets the vote in an ultra-competitive handicap. A strong pace could bring Elusive Ogie and Sallap right into the mix, with Beggars Rock and Fou de Toi also appealing.

About The Selections
Johnny Ward
Caher Roes Den He did not shape badly at Downpatrick, having been really weak in the market, and he stays well. I’d give him a better chance each-way than a few shorter than him in the market.
Angus McNae
Fou De Toi He has been dropped 7lb in two runs and now he steps up in trip and encounters faster ground than he has recently and he can provide Willie Mullins and Paul Townend with another Galway Festival winner.

Race Hints
Specific Pace Hint: Rocky's Howya shouldn’t be inconvenienced if looking to adopt a prominent position: Despite a suspicion the pace will be sound, those held up such as Sallap usually is are still likely to have their work cut out.
Individual Price Hint: Pinot Rouge traded at 10% or less of Betfair SP and 25% or less of Betfair SP on 2 of its last 5 starts: Elusive Ogie has traded at 50% or less of Betfair SP twice on its last 5 starts.
