Chess Grand Master won a Sligo bumper on heavy ground but has since been well beaten on the Flat. Dis Donc, a dual bumper winner in France, was returning from a long break when well beaten on his hurdling debut at Gowran a couple of weeks ago but will have come on for the run. Turbine's two victories on the Flat came on the all-weather while it's over a year since VENGEFUL won on the Flat in France. The latter won by 10 lengths that day and has joined Gordon Elliott, who should have him ready for action. Last Man Standing made an encouraging debut at Gowran and, with improvement likely, can challenge for a place.
