FARNBOROUGH had stablemate Canute three lengths behind when beaten a short-head by Fleetfoot over a mile on heavy ground at Leopardstown. Both should be suited by stepping up in trip and the positions can be confirmed. The winner's yard is represented by Young Ireland, who has been bumping into some smart performers in maidens and is likely to be suited by racing on quicker ground. Joseph O'Brien has two entries with Warrior Lion potentially better than we saw last season while Squire Danagher, who is by Australia, can make his mark this campaign.
