Arnacoeur has changed stables since a much better effort at Ballinrobe while Doctor Glide caught the eye behind the prolific Firefox at Fairyhouse when Helvic Dream wasn't far behind. Houlanbatordechais has disappointed in two starts over timber and his stable may have a better chance with Mirazur West, who was very impressive in a Naas bumper in March. Monsant was well supported for a Punchestown maiden in June and was only headed on the run-in while Old Port was staying on nicely over 2m1f at Cork so could find this on the short side. KING OF KINGSFIELD's close second to stablemate Farren Glory in the Grade 1 Royal Bond is easily the best form on view and he should get off the mark. James's Gate had some smart bumper form for Willie Mullins and is one to note for his new trainer.
