The Ger Lyons and Colin Keane combination can strike again with ECLECTOR. The in form trainer/jockey duo can land the spoils here with the first-time blinkered son of Gutaifan holding off the possible attentions of potential improver, Shines Her Light for the Jessica Harrington yard and the Peter Maher-trained, Joupe who posted a career best on her latest start at Sligo earlier in the month. Handicap debutantes' Cap D'antibes and Mia Figilia should be checked in the market as post-time approaches.
