EXACT didn't find a great deal once headed at Galway last month but that was still a step up on his debut effort over a longer trip at Navan and this isn't the most competitive of maidens. Mount McLeod has had plenty of chances and is beginning to show signs of temperament but Urban Seascape ran green at Clonmel and should do better while Troon will have learned from his run at Killarney and it's interesting that Dermot Weld is persevering with the four-year-old.
