Taras Call followed an encouraging debut at KIlbeggan with an even better performance there earlier this month and more rain would enhance her prospects of going one better. Tajseer looked short of pace when third over the track and trip last month and is another who would be better off on softer going. His third place behind Boris De Blae was a very good effort but runner-up that day was WHIZZZEY RASCAL and Liz Doyle's filly will be very unfortunate to come across one as good as the winner. Concience has been steadily improving over the minimum trip but will need more to get involved here.
