Minella Beau will be one to pay attention to for the champion handler and should have a future in this sphere but others have experience and might be preferable for now, a sentiment that also attaches to Aeglos. Ah Littleluck made a good start over fences at Wexford recently and ought to build on it, with Round Tower also posting an improved effort at Tipperary last time and deemed likely to shed the maiden tag somewhere soon. SCHMIDT is lightly-raced and was improver over timber before finishing second on his first attempt at this discipline at Limerick. Henry De Bromhead's charge looks to have plenty scope for better.
