A host of these took part in a 5f contest at Navan 10 days ago in which last year's winner ENTER THE RED came out best in fourth. He looks set for a repeat on that evidence. Affinia Fifty, Acting Talent and La Canaada finished closest to the selection last time and the latter had earlier beaten Breezolini at Sligo. Lady Ranger ran below par on her latest start but had strung together a sequence of placed efforts before that and Hughies Bay has slipped down the weights.
