FLAMING DAWN appeared to run into a smart bumper winner when runner-up to Neck Or Nothing at Punchestown and will be unfortunate to come up against one as good. He can go one better though Massini's Brook will be better for a recent run at Sligo and produced a better effort when a close third at Kilbeggan in May. Isle View looks as though he has something to find but Truth Be Told should prove a threat as he was unhappy on fast ground at Cork in July after a very promising debut behind B L Swagger here the previous month. Gordon Elliott has booked Nina Carberry for the newcomer Tom's Article and the combination are always worthy of consideration.
