ARTICIAN followed up a second in a Group 3 here with a third in a Group 2 at the Curragh and it will be disappointing if he can’t beat Curragh winner Monaasib off level weights, though the latter’s form could receive a boost in the opener. Larado sports blinkers after a disappointing debut but, like Tralong Rock and All Things Bright, is probably playing for places.
