Scrum Half has gone backwards and was well beaten at Listowel last week. Vinland did much better at Roscommon where he didn't quite get the run of the race but stable companion ZAYNUDIN was beaten at odds-on at the Curragh in July. The latter is expected to do better, however, and can take this though Gonetomillgrove led for a long way over this trip at Galway. Goodnight Kiss has made most in her last two starts over an extended 1m1f at Gowran. She hasn't been stopping and, though this is a big step up in trip, her stable is in superb form.
