Two-time AW winner is 0-13 on turf but has gone close in defeat; some of best efforts have come at Galway so likely to be heading to Ballybrit; however, not beaten far at Down Royal last time (7f, soft) and 1lb lower now so place shout, though could be drawn better. |

0-8 since his winning debut as 2yo for Aidan O'Brien; six starts for this yard and four were Class 2 handicaps but he didn't fare any better in a 1m2f Class 3 at Sandown (40-1) and whether he can take advantage of a small-field Class 4 today has to be in doubt; hooded this season except today. |

Back in trip KORTEZ BAY can get off the mark at the fifth time of asking. The Ballydoyle debutant Samuel Colt could well prove the main threat, while Thrifty Of Digby could come on enough from a recent debut to feature. [Alan Hewison]
