Fran Berry may be on RTV duty from Tipperary this afternoon but he's got his eye on one for Jessica Harrington on the Flat at Leopardstown tonight.
I've just the one selection from Leopardstown this evening which runs in the 10 furlong maiden at 7.30.
He shaped quite well when fifth to Wichita on debut in August and while he didn't really go on from that as hoped, he returns to action this evening with the Jessica Harrington yard in good form.
He flopped at Dundalk on his second appearance but was a touch better when stepped up to a mile here at Leopardstown when last seen in October.
He's a son of Make Believe, from the family of Youmzain and a few other strong middle-distance performers, and I find it hard to believe the ability he showed first time out won't be rekindled at some point.
I'm not a massive fan of the favourite in this race, Dermot Weld's Classify, so I make Aesop a good value alternative at 4/1 with a couple of firms.
