Now may the time to side with Flur Na H Alba, who is in good heart and is weighted to reverse recent form with Mr Wolf, who is respected but has a bit to do under a penalty from a wide draw. Kings College Boy and Never Without Me are others to consider, while Domirati ran a blinder here 10 days ago and has each way claims on that run alone. Never Without Me has been frustrating to follow on the turf and is not one to be relying on too heavily. However, he is well treated off his current mark and it will be interesting if he attracts interest from the betting ring. The same can be said of Kings College Boy, who has form that ties in with several of these. Paul Hanagan gets on very well with the five-year-old and the partnership can make sure this is a true test. Dizzy In The Head would also have a chance on the best of his efforts. Still, he does look a little high in the weights at present and needs everything to drop just for him. Therefore, we prefer the claims of Flur Na H Alba has slipped to a winning mark and, as his last few efforts have created the impression that his turn is not too far away, this looks a good opportunity to get involved with John Quinn's charge; especially as he is likely to be available at fair odds.
