Plenty of these arrive in top form including Maker Of Kings. Ger Lyons' charge landed a Gowran maiden in good style in June and returned to winning ways when beating the hat-trick seeking Teed Up at Tipperary, for which he's up another 5lb. He had Emiyn over five lengths behind in that Gowran event but the latter, who loved the heavy going when scoring at Listowel, has a 12lb pull which should bring them much closer together. Bardo Contiguo gained his first victory for Eoin Doyle at Tipperary and was so impressive he's been put up 12lb but THEOPHILE has only been raised a pound for her victory in a Fairyhouse maiden and is progressing fast enough to complete a double.
