CEST NOTRE GRIS had no answer to Voices Of Spring at Fairyhouse earlier this month but had the remainder well beaten and can go one better on the quicker going. Poetic Lord was running well for most of last summer though he hasn't been seen since July while the four-year-old Credulous appears to have gone backwards after his two promising opening runs. Teoleena has been inconsistent though her placed effort behind Golan Road in January would put her in the frame and she had a run on the Flat last weekend.
