This looks another for Ballydoyle via FERRETTI (NAP). The son of War Front only just failed to peg back stable companion San Andreas over 6f here last month and the longer trip should see him go one better. Antilles, another for Aidan O'Brien, has improved with each run and it wouldn't take much more to get into contention. Dandys Ocean couldn't quite contain Chicago May in a track and trip nursery and is up 4lb while Crimson King found a mile on heavy going beyond him at Gowran but his pedigree suggests he's the type to do better. Fairyhouse claimer winner Only The Brave ran well in a better race than this at Leopardstown last weekend.
