Ruby Walsh and Tony Martin have teamed up successfully since the jockey's return and Golan Guy will be fancied to add to their tally though he suffered a slight injury when favourite at Down Royal on Friday. If he turns out again quickly he must be a threat though BLUE TURK is taken to get off the mark over timber. He's gradually improved since joining new connections from the UK and there was plenty to like about his second to Imperial Shabra at Kilbeggan last time. Crevelea Lass may have found the soft going against her at Limerick and her previous efforts on faster ground would put her in the frame for this.
