DIAMOND FIELDS finished a close second to Only Mine at Cork and the winner was narrowly beaten in a Group 3 at Ayr last week. He didn't appear to stay the extra furlong on his latest start on soft ground at Leopardstown and this looks within his capabilities. The Yellow Bus made a promising debut at Leopardstown but didn't make the expected progress at Naas while Mr Michael has been looking a bit one-paced at the finish over 7f in his recent races. Zebgrey looked a certain future winner when a close fourth in a Listed contest at Tipperary in July but has disappointed in his two latest starts. Blairmayne showed good pace for a long way over 7f at Down Royal while Rezeki has plenty of speed in his pedigree and is one to note.
