Joseph O'Brien has two entries headed at the weights by Bachelor, who has been very disappointing after a promising debut. His stable companion Sebastiano Ricci has been running against top company in maidens and doesn't look too badly treated while Mount Wellington would have a good chance on his run behind Strike For Freedom at the Curragh and found 5f too sharp next time. PAINTING PICTURES looked one to follow after an easy victory over this trip on soft ground at Roscommon but appeared to find a mile stretching her stamina at Killarney and this should prove within her capabilities. Deep Breath looks a threat after a fair run in a Curragh nursery following his debut success at Fairyhouse where he had subsequent winner Island Affair six lengths behind.
