3/1

Built on his Killarney fourth when second of 11 in handicap at Down Royal (7f, soft, 5/1) 11 days ago, deseving credit having made his ground up out wide. First-time visor replaces blinkers. Gets the vote under McMonagle.

Forecasts

Toy Soldier (3/1), Blue Anthem (10/3), La La Lucrative (5/1), Selective Power (5/1), Brains (6/1), Methgal (9/1), Medieval Night (9/1), Givehertilxmas (11/1), He's Holding Court (14/1), Eichan San (14/1), Queen Of Newark (20/1), Alandownunder (22/1), Shahada Ace (22/1), Zheleznaya Dama (33/1), The Blue Panther (40/1), Misava (40/1), Snap Decision (50/1), Polanco (50/1)

TOY SOLDIER has shaped well in recent starts and might prove the answer under Dylan Browne McMonagle. Methgal, Medieval Night and Brains, who has a decent C&D record, head the dangers.
