Mick Halford won this a year ago and DALEWARI can follow suit. The superbly-bred son of Desert Style has shown some potential on ground with some give and his pedigree suggests he'll do better with experience so this could prove a stepping stone to bigger things. Dancing Noretta showed the benefit of her opening run at Navan with a much-improved run here a week later. She was making good late progress over 7f on that occasion so this trip should suit. An Riocht cost 170,000gns as a yearling and is a half-sister to a Group 3 winning juvenile. Pat Smullen is a very positive booking for Patrick Prendergast's charge so the market should be watched. Masterchippy has looked in need of the experience on both starts to date and should now be ready to make his presence felt.
