MISTER PINK will be at short odds to go one better than at Fairyhouse in February, a race that has worked out well, and should have few problems doing so. Tomas O Maille has been placed in his last three but will probably need to improve further to beat the selection while Zolpharine was beaten 18 lengths when fourth here in May. Dereks Dream, a half-sister to two winners, and Derek O'Connor's mount Soleil Couchant, look best of the remainder.
