Cappacon completed a double at around 2m4f before finding the minimum on fast ground against him at Navan though he only went down narrowly. He should be capable of better and his young rider's claim is a bonus. Plan Of Attack hasn't had much experience but has shown potential and ran better than his form figure suggests over this trip at Clonmel. Isle Of Destiny was beaten into third over this trip in a Wexford maiden but was sent to Hexham and obliged over 2m4f under Richard Johnson. She's only five and still looks well handicapped while EPSILON INDI would have won over this trip at Wexford but for falling at the last. The latter may have needed a confidence booster at Tramore later and gets the nod in a tricky handicap.
