Santo Prince has now had a dozen starts over hurdles without winning though he's getting closer and should be involved in the finish. Flaviana probably had a bit too much use made of her at Tramore where she took up the running at the third last before fading on the run-in. That was over the minimum trip but ridden with more restraint she'll be difficult to beat. Winning bumper MR STEADFAST didn't get the run of the race over 2m4f at Wexford last time and, with the shorter trip likely to be in his favour, he looks another for the Elliott yard. Trainstation looks a threat as he only weakened close home when attempting to give My Manekineko 5lb at Limerick on just his second start over timber.
