SEA'S ARIA showed some ability on the Flat for John Oxx and made an impressive start for Denis Hogan over timber at Clonmel where he was always travelling well. He faces a stiffer test here but may be up to it. Disputed has struggled off his new mark after scoring at Tipperary but has been running well enough to get into the frame but Coldstonesober appears best over further these days. Esta Quercus, who produced a surprise when beating Vercingetorix in a Ballinrobe maiden in May, reverts to hurdles after a couple of moderate runs on the Flat. Pershing was beaten a long way when runner-up at Perth and will need to step-up a gear.
