ALLEE GARDE was all the rage on his reappearance at Gowran last month but found one too good in Sword Of Destiny. The third, who was beaten nine lengths, has since won so the form looks good enough for this. Letter Of Credit is getting better with each run and has looked as though stepping up to this trip would suit though a bigger threat may emerge in the shape of Radio Eireann, who caught the eye with a staying-on effort behind Nodouraboura at Roscommon in May, his only start to date. Giveabobback went to Dromahane last month with a big reputation and comfortably landed the odds, suggesting he has a future under Rules though it will eventually be over jumps.
