Forrard Away looked a likely future winner when a close third at Fairyhouse and was well supported at Limerick but weakened quickly from the last. Caridadi was behind him at Fairyhouse though wasn't beaten far but DJASEK looks a more likely winner. Tony Martin's charge ran easily his best race to date when chasing home Flindt on the latter track earlier this month and can defy a 2lb rise. Big Debates reverts to hurdles after a very good run over fences at Limerick while Land Jet was noted making late headway at Limerick last month and has scope for further progress.
