Ballydoyle have hardly set the world alight so far this season but either of today's representatives, Park Avenue and Snow Mountain, could take this if fully wound up as they are bred to have plenty of pace. Clondinnery made a promising start behind High Award here but disappointed when strongly fancied at Dundalk while Radharcnafarraige's close debut third behind Samuel More has been devalued by a poor subsequent effort from the runner-up. Dermot Weld's newcomer TRIPLE EIGHT is by Royal Applause out of a mare who won over 5f/6f as a juvenile so he is expected to be a very speedy type and can make a winning start.
