TOSHIZOU shaped well at the Curragh on the second of three starts last term and, while his final one was a touch underwhelming, he's in good hands and fancied to get back on the up after 7 months off. Spanish Tenor is respected after a successful return at Naas and the four-timer seeking Business should play a part.
