This lucrative nursery can go the way of YULONG VOICE, who stayed on strongly to catch Franklin Street over the trip at Bellewstown and can confirm the form despite being 5lb worse off. Emperor Of The Sun still looked green when scrambling home in a Galway maiden and normal progress should see him in the firing line while Troop Commander improved when stepped up to this trip for the first time at Killarney, though an 11lb rise makes things much tougher. Ampeson was only beaten a length in a similar contest at Cork and is on the same mark.
