Improving suffered a hat-trick of narrow defeats before finding 7f and heavy ground against him at Listowel but Roundel had been racing over further before dropping to 7f at Cork and running his best race to date. DEPARTMENTALIZE showed the benefit of his opening run when failing by a head to catch Teed Up at Roscommon and the winner boosted the form by scoring at Galway next time so Joe Murphy's charge can go one better. Wonwabbitwon ran in a couple of strong maidens in June and takes a drop in class.
