ALL THE KING'S MEN made a promising debut at the Curragh and started a short-priced favourite over this track and trip next time but was beaten by stable companion Isle Of Innisfree. He was again heavily supported when tackling an extended 6f at Listowel last week but again disappointed so doesn't look one to rely on entirely. However, this doesn't look the toughest of maidens though stable companion Never No More cost E300,000 and has a Group 1 entry so the market could be an indicator of his chances. Dottie Vallens didn't run badly behind the odds-on Nitro Boost at Bellewstown though Betty's Heart, who wasn't far behind, was making her debut and may improve past her.
