After a moderate opening effort at the Curragh, Snow Mountain went to Listowel on Sunday strongly fancied to get off the mark but didn't come up to expectations though he failed to get the clearest of runs. He should do better but SYDNEY HARBOUR has the stronger form and unless there is a decent newcomer can get off the mark at the third time of asking. David Wachman's colt ran a fair race behind Moonlit Garden at the Curragh last month when Heir To The Mint faded quickly after showing good early pace and can continue on the upgrade. Tommy Stack won this last year and his two entries, Campos and Vamizi Island, should be respected
