Best two efforts in four maiden runs came over 7f at Dundalk last winter; not a bad run on handicap bow and seasonal return at Limerick (7f, soft) behind Zenford and Venetian Star; same mark here and Keane takes over now; ran well on good ground at the Curragh last term; interesting.

T: G M Lyons

Twice runner-up at Dundalk late last year after showing ability in two runs on turf; can pick up a race like this if he has matured satisfactorily.

Has earned a rating of 77 after three runs; beaten a neck over C&D on latest last month on return from 102 days off; should strip fitter now and he's a leading contender.

E260,000 yearling; fifth foal, half-brother to three winners; made a pleasing debut as the stable outsider when fourth of 17 over 6f at Naas; looked in need of further when fifth (fourth in group) in a 28-runner Curragh maiden won by subsequent Ascot big-race winner Mission Central; second, third and fourth have all won.

E260,000 yearling; fifth foal, half-brother to three winners; made a pleasing debut as the stable outsider when fourth of 17 at Naas last month (once-raced stablemate Krasimir took second); Colin Keane takes over; may turn the tables on Whatchadoin.
