Temptationinmilan has yet to make the frame in eight starts so the fact he heads the weights says much about the nature of the contest. That said, he did shape much better the last day and market support would be significant for the Byrnes inmate. Bitview Colin, in and out of form this year, was much better at Limerick recently and is respected on that run but JOAN OF PIMLICO did well to make the frame on her handicap bow - and against older horses - when a staying-on third at Fairyhouse and can progress further here. The best of He'sthewon's form - a fair third in a Limerick handicap - gives him a shout too on this debut run for the Patrick Martin team.
