Londoner would need major progress from a moderate opener at Navan to take a hand as would Atlantic Charter from his run at Leopardstown though the latter had won a barrier trial here earlier. Rattle And Hum was well supported at Thurles but couldn't quite get there and his stable also run Cervetto, who finished first past in a barrier trial here. GOLDEN TEMPLE's best run came over the track and trip in August when runner-up to Adelaide River, who has been placed in two Group races subsequently. He didn't enjoy soft ground at Galway next time and can get off the mark. Western Cape was staying on strongly over 7f here a fortnight ago but Semantics hasn't made the expected progress from a very promising debut.
