Charlie Bassett was headed right on the line in a Fairyhouse handicap and Gavin Ryan's claim is again a bonus. Daylight Come makes a quick reappearance after a cracking effort behind the long odds-on Dawn Patrol at Naas on Wednesday when the remainder were well beaten. PUGIN was headed close home over this trip at Leopardstown and again over an extra furlong at Killarney and gets a good chance to go one better. His stable companion Salinity is a half-brother to five winners and one to note in the market while Sliabh Aughty wasn't beaten far in his last two starts at Dundalk in the autumn.
