ONEEIGHTOFAMILE, four times a winner in 2011, was having only his second subsequent start when runner-up to Juara at Tipperary in June and looks ready to regain the winning thread. Foot Soldier ran a superb race behind Hidden Universe at Galway then may have been feeling the effects when a beaten favourite there a few days later. He had Wood Breizh behind in the first of those races and should do so again but Knight's Parade is a big threat after a brave attempt to concede weight to the in-form Ridestan at the Festival.
