Falcon Island ran well behind Silverlord in a maiden at Down Royal but makes his handicap debut from a high enough mark. Ferry Point has been going well at around this trip and looks sure to get involved under Paul Carberry. He just holds Barneys Honour on their run at Leopardstown last week while Dafarabad is extremely consistent over timber and on the Flat, though testing ground could be a problem. Karkari's best form has been on faster going, a remark that also applies to TURNER BROWN, though the latter gets the vote as he has won on ground with some give and ran well for a long way in testing conditions over 2m4f here last week.
