IRISH APPROACH was beaten a length over an extended mile at Nottingham and found dropping back to 7f at Redcar against him so this should prove ideal. He was only a head in front of Good Measure in that former event but the latter looked an awkward ride at Chelmsford next time and the positions can be confirmed. The remainder have shown little with Monroe Gold possibly the best of them.
