A potentially informative bumper with several powerful yards represented. Philip Hobbs' If In Doubt should be in the firing-line while Venetia Williams has her string firing on all cylinders so Panama Petrus is worth a second look in the betting. Radio Nowhere is another for the short-list and makes more appeal than Lucanor and Tackler on debut but DAWERANN may be the one to beat. Having been bred at the Aga Khan's stud, the Medicean gelding wouldn't have been expected to make his racecourse debut in a Bangor bumper but Michael Hourigan has sent the three-year-old over from County Limerick for his first start since leaving John Oxx's yard and he may just be a bit quicker than these.
