Bellagio Man ran green over this trip at Dundalk in March but stayed on nicely once getting the hang of the job. Burj Malinka never threatened over 6f at Naas in October but ran on and the longer trip will suit. Sunwalk, from a yard in form, takes a big drop in trip after attempting to make all over 1m2f at the Curragh where he was only headed 1f out. TRUE ARTIST (NAP) was possibly unlucky not to get the race in the stewards' room after being carried left by the winner inside the final furlong at the Curragh. That was a premier handicap and compensation awaits. Miramis would be the form pick on her close fifth in a Group 3 on the latter track though she didn't run up to that form in a maiden on a return visit a month later. Noise is a half-sister to four winners and her stable remains in top form.
