PLEASURE DOME is in excellent heart this term for the champion trainer and beat a decent sort last time at Ballinrobe. Hes' a versatile and reliable barometer and can score again. Swingbridge had plenty in hand when scoring over fences at Perth and reverts to hurdles on a potentially dangerous mark. About You has also been going about her business in good style lately and enters the argument.
