Hong Kong proved disappointing on soft ground at the Curragh after a promising start behind smart stable companion Armory at the same venue. Donnacha rides but another from the yard, SAN PEDRO, caught the eye when staying on over an extended 5f at Navan and will be much better suited by this trip. The remainder with experience haven't shown much so Frank Arthur, a half-brother to the useful Arnold Lane, looks more of a threat along with Dermot Weld's Soul Seeker, a half-brother to two winners.
