Presenting Julio reverts to the Flat on a very lowly mark after last summer's exploits over hurdles and fences when he won five times. He could find this on the short side as could Drakensberg, whose victory over the trip in France was on soft ground. Park Row led for a long way over slightly further at Leopardstown but HIGH KICKER looks the one to be on. Peter Fahey's charge will be suited by a likely fast gallop and was staying on stoutly when scoring over slightly further at Tipperary. Lucky Icon easily won a Ballinrobe hurde in May and came in for strong support back on the level at Leopardstown but pulled very hard and was soon done with.
