Twice finished second already, including in Ballinrobe maiden claimer over 1m1½f last month on softer ground. Should handle these conditions and entitled to have a say.

Has been going backwards in five runs this term, though the pick of his form would have him in the mix for this level going back up in trip and for yard in brilliant form (22% strike rate recently).

5/2
Held in quartet of maidens so far, 4½L sixth of 11 at Naas over 7f (good to yielding) 16 days ago representing closest he's finished. Upped in trip and with first-time tongue tie on, could go close.

Beaten a combined 70L in three maidens at 1m-1m2f so far, not fancied for dramatic change in fortune here despite yard being in pleasing form.

Will need to improve for the fitting of first-time blinkers here if hoping to take this prize away on what will be a fifth start.

3/1
Remains a maiden after 18 starts though did go close over this trip on penultimate start at Naas late last month. This isn't strong and the drop in trip should suit.

Forecasts

Discovery Lad (5/2), Future Frontier (3/1), Buffalo Blues (10/3), A Place Apart (13/2), Tenth Amendment (7/1), Nightly Wailing (10/1)

Verdict

A modest contest to open proceedings, with it being equally tough to rule out runners as it is to be confident in them. TENTH AMENDMENT was second at Ballinrobe last time over a slightly shorter trip on softer ground. He should handle the likely going and might be up to winning a race like this. Dropping to this level, Buffalo Blues and Discovery Lad are also entitled to feel their chances are very live ones. Future Frontier has had a lot of attempts but it go very close over this trip two starts ago.
