Wexford Race 5 - Pat Farrell Memorial Rated Novice Chase
YOU OUGHTA KNOW (5) provided fine form finishing second at Kilbeggan and following that with another runner-up spot at this track over 3218m. In top form and looks hard to beat. INTELLOTTO (3) was third in a G3 at Galway. Remains a leading contender. WAR CORRESPONDENT (4) is consistent. Brings good course form and cannot be discounted. FINE MARGIN (2) may improve from his recent G3 outing and rates a serious threat.

Last start finished third in a small field at Perth on August 16 over 4023m, 8 len behind King Roly with 71kg at $13. The run before finished 18th of 20 runners at Galway on August 1 over 4526m, 30 len behind Turnpike Trip carrying 71kg at $34. Might find this a bit too tough.

Third-up today and won third-up previously. First-up won by 1.5 len this track on July 4 over 3922m defeating Hms Seahorse carrying 75.5kg at $5 in a steeplechase. Second run from a spell finished ninth of 11 starters at Galway in the G3 on July 31 over 3621m, 52 len behind Gold Dancer with 70.5kg at $26. Hard to fault on his best form and must be respected.

Useful gelding. Comes off a 37 day let-up. Last start finished second in a small field at this track on July 23 over 3218m, 4 len behind War Correspondent carrying 75.5kg at $1.90. Start before finished second of 9 runners at Kilbeggan on June 16 over 4023m, 2.25 len behind Anyway carrying 72kg at $1.80. Serious win chance with even luck.
