Paintmaker, still a maiden after 18 career starts, will be having his first run beyond the minimum trip and doesn't look particularly well handicapped. Reportage ran poorly on soft ground at Perth last time after scoring there previously on much faster going. Lea Lady finished runner-up three times earlier in the summer and was having her first start for 10 weeks when catching the eye behind A Little Different at Kilbeggan in August. She'll be having her 20th career run here and has never won but should go close without threatening FLEETING MOMENT. Patrick Martin's charge, a long-time maiden on the Flat, has taken well to hurdling and showed great determination to catch Haventabobphil over the minimum trip here in August before a decent effort behind Imperial Shabra at Downpatrick.
