INGENIOUS STROKE is fitted with a combination of headgear back in maiden company. He finished second to the progressive Moving Water at Wexford when last competing at this level and can go one better today. So Scottish and Pretorius have a shout on these terms though neither arrive in good form with the latter having his first start of the year but Doyenna is unexposed and looks a threat on a recent third at Clonmel. Wild Caprice is not the most consistent but placed over a longer trip here two runs ago.
