A competitive Grade 1 to kick off the Dublin Racing Festival and FURY ROAD could get Gordon Elliot off to a flyer. The gelding would have won with much more in hand without making a mistake at the last in Grade 2 company at Limerick last time out. Latest Exhibition is another exciting prospect who can go well again while Assemble traveled well into his race last time out and could go well, though improvement will be required.
