Joseph O'Brien has three entries and POWERFUL AGGIE should have learnt enough from her debut a fortnight ago to get off the mark. Slowly away that day, she ran on when the race was all over and should again have the beating of stable companion Award Dancer, who had every chance. Diderot was well supported for her debut here in November and though unable to match the pace of the first two stayed on nicely and will have come on a bundle. Hamwood Flier was always in the front rank when tackling the track and trip last month and only gave way in the closing stages so she has to be a threat along with Nothingbuttrouble, who showed plenty of promise in three maidens on Turf in the autumn.
