Kinch has been narrowly beaten in his last two starts here and may have been a bit unlucky last time so should make a bold bid. He finished in front of Dani's Boy on his previous start and should have his measure again. IRISH AMBASSADOR hadn't shown much before an improved effort in January where he went close to catching Everyhouronthehour. If he can repeat that run he can go one better from his lowly mark. Endless Summer is running well enough to get into the frame again though has been beaten three times from this mark or below in recent weeks.
