Tang Dynasty has had his chances but didn't get the best of runs at Galway last time. Cosimo Medici didn't get going until too late over 7f here last month but Grandee ran very well behind the short-priced Utah at the Curragh. REKINDLING ran a superb race behind the subsequent Listed winner Capri at Galway, setting the pace and staying on when headed by the winner. That should have put him spot-on and he can go one better. Tawaleef started favourite for a Curragh maiden over the minimum trip back in March so obviously more was expected while World War made an encouraging start behind the odds-on Douglas Macarthur at Leopardstown and is certain to improve.
