The Gavin Cromwell-trained YAFORDADOE ran a solid race when waited with before progressing to finish third of 13 where a mistake a mistake at the last didn't help his cause at Punchestown last month. The four-year-old can improve on the effort to get off the mark at the fourth attempt at the expense distance winner and beaten favourite last time out, Bythesametoken. British Art in first time blinkers and Tashman are better than their most recent efforts suggest.
