Balko Saint was second to the prolific Hiconic on debut at Newton Abbot. Treaty Of Dingle finished third at Plumpton but Talking About You is probably the pick of Sean Curran’s pair. She beat BIG JIMBO (NAP) by seven lengths here two runs ago but is now 7lb worse off and, as Gary Moore’s juvenile looks to be improving with experience, may struggle to confirm that form. See The Eagle Fly is an interesting debutant, despite failing to win in eight starts on the Flat in Ireland, but Sans Logique has disappointed in both hurdles runs to date.
