Going in with Showoff at Donny again after his latest near-miss

DROOPYS SHOWOFF is well worth another chance when Janice Simpson's veteran goes in Doncaster's B3 over 450m at 5.21 despite being pipped when carrying our hopes last week.

A powerful finish on that occasion saw him just fail in a photo but he holds a couple of today's rivals on that evidence and a measure of the merit of the performance is that he clocked his best time over the trip since July.

Redbrick Ennis is an obvious danger but the selection can stay well within striking distance and deliver his challenge perfectly on this occasion.

Harlow has the usual Wednesday morning/evening double-header with Julie Pearson's Salems Jasmine (12.46) fancied to make it six wins in 11 post-season outings, while Paul Clarke's downgraded Rathmeehan Lyra (7.58) can secure a fourth win in five A7 starts at the subsequent evening fixture.

Elsewhere, Cindy Nolan's Yacht Marshal (1.29) can open his Kilkenny account at the tenth time of asking, while Donna Davy's Bells Babe (4.37) can prove strongest all-round against A3 rivals at Valley.
