Go Kart made a promising start at Dundalk and will have come on for the run though this looks a tougher heat. Aspar had no answer to the useful Final Frontier at the Curragh and the form hasn't worked out as well as expected. MORAL HIGH GROUND started favourite in a huge field at the Curragh last Saturday and, though eventually only third behind Smash Williams, that looks smart form and he can recoup losses. Roman Impero's dam has produced winners with her first two foals to race and along with Osmanthus, a half-sister to six winners, can prove best of the newcomers.
