AIN'T THAT A SHAME rates the form pick on his Fairyhouse third so looks the way to go with more improvement in the pipeline now he steps up in trip, Churchstonewarrior arrives on the back of a bumper win here so rates next best reverted to this sphere, with John Adams not ruled out either granted this stiffer test of stamina and the fitting of cheekpieces.
