Reddot Express was quietly fancied at Tipperary last month and finished ahead of the disappointing Athassel. He could figure if cheekpieces bring about some improvement. Gossip Central was third at Naas two runs ago while Specific Gravity is starting to slip down the weights again. SAPPHIRINE has been taking on better opposition since arriving from France and this looks her chance to shine – she won on Polytrack at Chantilly in the spring. Windsorlot has improved a little lately but Danse Rouge was a disappointing favourite at Tramore last time, though that was over a trip too far.
