Lia Fall was receiving 12lb when beating Megarry a short-head at Navan and the places were reversed in a Listed contest at Fairyhouse next time. Uluru has changed trainers since a convincing debut success at Gowran in July but the third has won subsequently. KING CUAN beat subsequent Listed winner Pipsy easily at Cork then overcame trouble in-running to beat today's rival Jakajaro in a much stronger race at Naas so looks the one to beat. My Mate Alfie ran another cracking race in the Goffs Million at the Curragh but has to concede weight all round. Cornahilt Soldier was well beaten at Dundalk on Friday.
