With improvement likely now moving up in trip, THE TACK ROOM is taken to land this valuable prize. He got the better of a progressive type in Sweet Will (winner over hurdles since) at Fairyhouse and an 11 lb rise looks manageable. Now Where Or When looks a big threat on the back of a fine effort in Grade 3 company, for all that he's been raised 8 lb for that. Gabbys Cross was behind Espanito Bello in the Thyestes at Gowran but he's better than that and a bold show could be on the way here.
