Blinkers may bring about further improvement in Meebo but he finished behind Aru Cha Cha when fourth over 7f at Down Royal earlier this month. Nakara was third over this shorter trip at the same meeting and has to be considered but there are races to be won at this level with INVISIBLE FLASH judged on his latest fifth at the Curragh and he has more scope than Hilltown Gal, who is starting to come down the weights but has finished last in her last two starts. None of the others have shown enough so far to merit consideration.
