RULE THE WIND just failed to hold off the more experienced Castle Field Boy over 2m4f at Tipperary and though that wasn't the strongest of maidens progress is expected and he can go one better. Flidais had shown nothing before a much improved run when a 100/1 chance here last month when he chased home Wasthatok, who was declared at Clonmel yesterday. Ideal Du Tabert followed a couple of placed efforts with a moderate run at Fairyhouse but this longer trip should suit while stablemate Lazer Wolf made most when tackling 2m6f at Downpatrick and only weakened from the last. Yara Greyjoy was engaged in the 4.45 at Clonmel yesterday and today's first reserve Marv Michael was in the 6.18.
