Mark Johnston is the man to follow at Dundalk and his already tremendous strike-rate can be further boosted by HEROSTATUS. The son of Dalakhani has blinkers fitted for the first time tonight after a rather wayward effort over 1m5f at Lingfield where he wandered around and scored comfortably despite looking a difficult ride. This will be his first start over the trip but it certainly won't bother Oneeightofamile, a bumper and hurdles winner, who is looking well handicapped on the Flat and who looks a real threat. Champion Boy has been in very good form all summer but has crept up the weights as a consequence and is untried beyond 1m4f.
