Patience is wearing a bit thin waiting for Free Art to get off the mark. He's now gone 10 starts without a win and a chance is taken on the less-exposed CELEBRITY SEVI. Dermot Weld's charge was unfancied for his seasonal debut over a longer trip at Cork and ran accordingly but much better is expected with that run behind him, especially if the betting speaks in his favour. Another to note for any market moves is the newcomer Hurricane Season, who is a half-brother to a couple of winners, while Aragorn Rouge will have come on for his debut at Naas and could prove best of the rest.
