There don't appear to be any stars lurking here. Momus continues to go well and should be on the board soon enough, he probably sets the standard. The Mullins pair of Face The Facts and Defy De Mee have already spurned some good chances while Myth Buster perhaps just didn't see out 3m last time and should prefer this test. ESPANITO BELLO was backed to win a bumper on debut here in January last and, with more progress likely, has a fair chance of continuing winning ways going jumping.
