Danziger finished third in the opening race at Tipperary yesterday. Dynamite Dixie started the campaign with a fine run over 1m2f at Leopardstown and has gradually dropped in distance culminating in a poor effort on heavy ground over 7f at the Curragh. An Cat Dubh has gone very close on several occasions including when running over this trip for the first time at Dundalk a couple of weeks ago. REGAL POWER had been going well which is why he started favourite for what looked a hot maiden over 7f at Fairyhouse but he didn't really fire and a return to this trip is what he needs to gain his first success. He just holds Flying Doha on earlier running while Ellell Duke, who had very strong juvenile form, wears blinkers for the first time after finishing last on his return following a year's absence at Fairyhouse two weeks ago.
