JAPAN was an expensive purchase for connections and is entitled to be well above average on his breeding. The betting suggested he was expected to learn from his Curragh debut but there were plenty positives in that run and, typically for a Ballydoyle colt, it won't be a shock if he leaves that run behind now. Sacchoandvanzetti is another expected to step up on his Curragh bow while Macken could have place claims if he improves again.
