Aidan O'Brien runs two with Perfect Storm having finished in front of stable companion Sao Paolo over 7f at Limerick where he was staying on over that 7f trip. He looks the best of the pair at the moment though neither would live with another stablemate Finn McCool at present and that one only had half-a-length to spare over HARBOUR BEACON (NAP) over this track and trip a couple of weeks ago. Ger Lyons' colt was only headed in the closing stages by the more experienced winner and should have few problems going one better. Fior Cliste finished in front of both of Aidan O'Brien's entries at Limerick where he stayed on nicely so he looks the main threat, though Ely Place caught the eye behind Yucatan at the Curragh in August and is one to keep on the right side.
