STARMAN wasn't disgraced when seventh in what looked a significantly stronger maiden than this at Naas recently and he could be the answer. It's likely that he will have most to fear from Bocelli's Voice, who has shown a fair level of ability in 3 starts in this sphere to date and may do better still when sharpening up his jumping. Duncarrig, Farceur de Sivola and Mister Twist all make each-way appeal.
