HEXAGONAL has found the progressive An Ghalanta too good the last twice, including when fourth in a Listed race at the Curragh last month. He should take care of today's rivals, however, and can finally open his account. Shabra Emperor showed improved form at Dundalk last time, though he's not certain to appreciate the drop back in trip here, and recent Curragh fourth Bogini makes more appeal in first-time headgear. She's My Dandy has run her best races over the minimum trip and had Seastar Island behind at Bellewstown in July. Newcomer Red Avis is worth noting for any support in the betting.
