ARD MHACHA finished over five lengths behind the smart Pandora Lovegood at Roscommon but got much closer to that winner on better terms in a Galway nursery and can continue his progress. Approaching Bear wasn't far behind in that latter event and could provide the main threat but Blindsided looks high enough in the ratings on what he's achieved. Slaney Tide has run in better company and makes her nursery debut as does Pub Talk.
