Probably a good 3-y-o handicap with LUST fancied to defy his opening mark. He was impressive when winning a maiden at Gowran on his return and looks capable of even better back over a mile. Other potential improvers include The Piano Player, Puerto de Vega and Spring Time Bay, while Vocito is thriving on racing and can go well again after his Cork victory.
