towards rear for most, never a factor
Sunwake has done most of his racing on soft ground but she has no problems on faster going and a run on the flat at Sligo earlier this week will have brought her to the boil. BACHER BOY justified strong support to beat Sylvan Approach more comfortably than the narrow margin suggests at Gowran and looks the type to continue on the upgrade. He can take this though shock Punchestown winner Stanton Court and recent runner-up Auenschutze look tough rivals, especially the latter who wasn't beaten far by the in-form The Fonze at Down Royal and will appreciate the likely strong pace.
