The Moore Factor hasn't shown much for new connections in three runs this year and was beaten a long way into third at Downpatrick. PERSIAN WIND (NAP) has always to be respected at this sort of level and has won over the course and distance. He just failed to hang on at Bellewstown earlier this month and Paul Townend can steer him to another victory. Dia Del Sol ran easily his best race since arriving from Germany when runner-up at Cork and though 2lb higher should make a bold bid to go one better. Northern Sky has been running quite well on the Flat though likes soft ground but Last Garrison bounced back with a surprise victory on the Flat at Down Royal though is hardly a consistent type.
