HARDEN would have plenty to find with his stablemate Broken Soul on the figures but whereas the latter may be going the wrong way, Harden does at least seem to be getting the hang of things if his latest third at Limerick is to be believed. He may be worth taking the chance on to turn over his likely more fancied stablemate, who's second to Supreme runner-up Melon is looking a bit of a distant memory. It's possible he may turn things around form-wise but may have his own ideas about the game at present. The fight for the bronze can be won by Ballyhowne.
