Capitoline Hill went to Bellewstown on Sunday with a big chance after a fine run at Clonmel but disappointed behind Hamalka and will need to raise his game. Mannin Beach looked a progressive type when making a fine comeback at Sligo but dropped away tamely at Listowel a month ago and is difficult to consider on that form. Regal D'Estruval is held by Capitoline Hill on Clonmel form but that was only his second start over timber and he's the type to do better. Mel Del is finding it difficult to get her head in front and in a race of mainly disappointing types the lightly-raced QUEEN ANDROMACHE, a winner over a mile at Navan in May, is taken to make a successful start to her career over timber.
