Bubbly Bellini makes a quick reappearance having won at Cork four days ago where he beat Oor Jock, Master Speaker and Big Bad Lily over 6f. He should be in the mix but has a bit to find on earlier running with CAPTAIN CULLEN. Gerard Keane's charge went very close in a tougher contest over today's trip at the Curragh last time with a handful of these behind and can go one better. Sweetest Taboo is unexposed and Snakes And Ladders drops back in trip for his first start of the year.
