STONE AGE made a taking first start when staying on into third in a Leopardstown maiden last week and is fancied to build on that now and open his account. Newcomer Golden Beach catches the eye on paper so could be the one to chase home Aidan O'Brien's colt, especially if the market speaks in his favour. Buckaroo can also have a say if, as expected, building on his Killarney debut third.
