Alooqaal wasn't beaten far over the course and distance a fortnight ago but is likely to need further progress. BEAUTY AMAZED attracted support at Leopardstown last month but found 7f too sharp so today's mile can see him off the mark. Golden Beach has a pedigree suited to the all-weather and has been running well enough on Turf to get competitive but Kirsapp has gone backwards since a promising debut and has changed stables. The 205,000gns In Ecstasy, who finished first past in a barrier trial here, got no sort of run at Gowran and will be expected to do much better though he's already been gelded.
