It's hard to look beyond BIRD OF PLAY, who was sold very cheaply as a yearling but already looks something of a bargain judged on his debut near-miss in a 19-runner maiden at the Curragh last weekend. The Free Eagle colt should take this before going on to better things. Newcomer Rubio Draco ticks plenty of the right boxes on paper and he gets the nod ahead of Nituna and Mount Ruapehu for forecast purposes.
