The smart bumper and hurdler VIGIL started long odds-on for a similar race over two miles here earlier this month but found one too good in the very progressive She's A Star. Dermot Weld's charge can gain compensation though Constancio, who was making his racecourse debut and wasn't beaten far into third, should get closer with that experience under his belt. Aidan O'Brien's pair Santa Anita and Sugarloaf Mountain were well beaten though both found the trip too far and are joined here by stable companions Three Star General and Like A Star. The former has been looking very one-paced while the latter, who had made a promising debut at Leopardstown in April, is fitted with blinkers after finishing last in a Listed race at Naas in June. Chocolat Noir takes a big leap in trip after a very good run behind the in-form Tipstaff over 1m2f here a couple of weeks ago.
