These look a mainly moderate bunch but Just For Joe ran well enough behind Gullinbursti here last month to suggest he is up to running well. His form is progressive and he goes on the short-list along with PHOENIX STAR, who just gets the vote after a promising debut in a big field at Gowran earlier this month. Big Bluff has shown ability in a couple of decent bumpers but a bigger threat may emerge in the shape of Tom Horn, a very promising second to Eight Is My Number at Navan before finding the going too heavy at Leopardstown.
