Pure Action has been placed twice at Dundalk and looks the pick of the older horses ahead of Live Twice but this can go to a newcomer. KUPA RIVER is a brother to a 7f winner who later did well in Hong Kong. Paddy Prendergast’s gelding is just preferred to Brevard and Mick Halford’s Helmet filly Spanish Dawn, who is a half-sister to three winners over this sort of trip. Vinyl is another for whom market interest would be significant but Voge is sprint-bred and may do better when dropped back to 6f or shorter.
