GLOWING ACCOUNT started long odds-on at Listowel and supporters never had a moment's concern so a double looks on the cards. Icare D'aubrelle went into many a notebook after an impressive debut when well supported at Naas, though that was in February last year. Youre A Derry Girl had shown little before a shock course and distance victory in August while Noble Talent may do better over further, a remark that also applies to Cap Bernat. Toor Khov looks best of the remainder.
